well, you have to have a copy of cc, and i was trying to create a package that would install everything you need. i looked at the ips project page and it recommends either install ss-dev or gcc-dev. ss-dev installs sunstudioexpress so i went with that. (the page doesn't say anything about the cbe.) would it be preferable to just leave sunstudioexpress out and then when we update the docs we can also require that folks update the CBE? > - perl? really? huh. > unfortunatly yes. it's some pod localization stuff. i discovered all these dependencies by creating a zone and then trying to build the package gate in there. > - I think this one you can include in the entire incorporation.

(the comment i read seemed to indicate that you could only be included in entire if all your contents were also included in entire.) ed _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
