After mucking around with installed files in the mysql5 package to get it to work, I want to re-install it to get it back into its pristine state and start again. Unfortunately, I cannot find any option of pkgutil that does this. I thought that pkutil -i -f "force install" might do the trick, but all it does it list the packages and says they are already installed. I tried removing mysql5 with "pkgutil -r -f ..." but it does the same thing, saying that it and its dependencies are all "in use".
What I'm actually thinking doing is going into /var/sadm/pkg to rename the package directory to trick pkutil into "thinking" that the package has not been installed yet and then re-installing it. Is this the only way to accomplish this or is there a better way? Larry Siden, Westside Consulting LLC westside-consulting.com 734-926-9614
