Thanks Jyothi. That link was helpful but it still doesn't answer few of my other questions.
1) Equivalent of pkgparam in opensolaris

2) While working on opensolaris i found this:
   -bash-3.2# pkg info SUNWzip
    Name: SUNWzip
    Summary: The Info-Zip (zip) compression utility
    State: Installed
    Authority: opensolaris.org (preferred)
    Version: 2.32
    Build Release: 5.11
    Branch: 0.86
    Packaging Date: Sat Apr 26 18:12:56 2008

    FMRI: pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED],5.11-0.86:20080426T181256Z
      -bash-3.2# pkginfo -l SUNWzip
   PKGINST:  SUNWzip
   NAME:  The Info-Zip (zip) compression utility
   CATEGORY:  system
   ARCH:  i386
   VERSION:  11.11.0,REV=2008.03.19.13.46
   VENDOR:  Sun Microsystems, Inc.
   DESC:  The Info-Zip (zip) compression utility
   HOTLINE:  Please contact your local service provider
   STATUS:  completely installed

Are these two different different installation of SUNWzip packages i.e one in pkg(5) and other in SVR4? If yes, why are we installing the same package twice in two different format?

3) I need a few PKG(5) packages to test install and uninstall. I don't want to play with existing installed in opensolaris.
Where can a get a few?

We are porting an application into opensolaris need these clarified for that.

Vikash,

There is a comparison table that compares IPS commands with the apt-get commands and SVR4 commands.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Hi Experts,
PKG(5) packaging is new to me and my doubts are probably very basic:)

1) What are the PKG(5) equivalent for following SVR commands:
I know that for pkginfo -l , it is now pkg info but what about pkgparam, pkgtrans, pkgadd, pkgrm?
