Yes, but currently I'm still planning on requiring the packages to be in an on-disk repository. Even if you don't have to launch a daemon to use the repository, it's likely that a repository will be the preferred format. This is all still up for discussion at the moment. -- Shawn Walker _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
