An example of a more complex problem for IPS to solve:
- if an update of a package needs to include new text in one of the
"database" editable text files in /etc that is used to build the NIS
maps on a NIS server, how does NIS get told to reubild the db?
And lets assume that the file was modified after initial install.
A combination of actuators in the package and SMF service dependencies
seems likely to solve that problem very cleanly.
After discovering that restarting things like the NIS service can crash
firefox, I'm wary of relying on dependencies and restarts.
Otherwise, it sounds like you've got a design or know of a design...
care to share?
