Our appliance needs to both add and remove packages on upgrade. For package addition, I believe we need to make a version of 'entire' that has 'require' dependencies. That way, when a new package is added that isn't otherwise depended upon (a new l12n, say), the new version of entire will depend upon it, and pick up the new package for installation.
My question is around package removal. Obviously, today the solution is to deliver a new version of the removed package that is empty. But what are the plans in the future? Will the above plan impact these plans negatively, or will we be safe? thanks john _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
