Can you let us know which documentation you found, and what in particular you found too complicated about it? Setting up and publishing a package to a repository is pretty straightforward. If you haven't already read it, this is a good starting document: http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/2009.06/IMGPACKAGESYS/index.html In particular, you may be interested in http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/2009.06/IMGPACKAGESYS/pkgsend.html along with the man page for pkgsend. Do you have prior experience creating other package formats, eg. SVR4 packages? cheers, tim _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
