Hi there,
I've got a code review here that delivers an SMF service which periodically
updates a local pkg(5) repository from one or more origins.
Cool!
In order for a user to run this service, the minimum they have to do is:
# pkgrepo create /some/repodir
# chown -R pkg5srv /some/repodir
# svccfg -s mirror setprop config/repository = /some/repodir
# svccfg -s mirror refresh
Quick question on these setup steps... by default, could a standard location
be used for the repo, and have the directory delivered by the system rather
than setup by the user? That is, I'd think 99% of the use cases will be to
configure a repo to be used by the install server and future updates to mirror
the Oracle repos. It'd be good if the default usage would involve the fewest
numbers of steps to make that happen. The directory is one such step... there
may be others too that we could help with.
I think the configurability you have is good, but it seems like the standard
use case case could be simplified further?
