Hi,
I have some packages I obtain from publically-accessible repositories,
and some that require me to bring up a VPN tunnel through my corporate
firewall to obtain (punchin :) ).
I find that if I add all the repositories to my publisher list, I
can't do image-update.
Is there an easy way I can deal with this, other than constantly
having to add and delete publishers from my list?
Have you tried enabling and disabling them? It's not perfect, but it's
better than adding and deleting them.
I wish that image-update would have a way to update from the
repositories it can access, without getting a fatal error when one of
its publishers is unreachable.
Can the -f option help here? The pkg man page says it skips "safety
checks" but doesn't define what those checks actually are (at least
not in the same terms)... I'd imagine it's talking about dependency
checking or perhaps platform compatibility?
-f forces image update to skip the version check for SUNWipkg, I'm
pretty sure it won't help in this situation.
If this isn't a current capability, is it something we're planning to
add?
I'm not sure. defect.opensolaris.org is where we take bugs and RFE's.
Thanks,
Brock
