No arguement from me. For better or for worse, most of the customers I speak with minimize their OS distributions. The more we can accurately describe dependencies within our current methods, the better.

Included below is a a thread which dealt with trying to find the packages necessary for a minimal Solais 10 U2 install with ZFS functionality. In addition to SUNWzfskr, SUNzfsr and SUNWzfsu the SUNWsmapi package needs to be installed. The libdiskmgt.so.1 library is required for the zpool(1M) command. Finding this out via trial and error, there is no dependency mentioned for SUNWsmapi in the SUNWzfsr depend file.

Apologies if this is nitpicking, but is this missing dependency worthy of submitting a P5 CR?

For an embedded application, I'm looking at creating a minimal Solaris 10 U2 image which would include ZFS functionality. In quickly taking a look at the opensolaris.org site under pkgdefs, I see three packages that appear to be related to ZFS: SUNWzfskr, SUNWzfsr, and SUNWzfsu. Is it naive to think that this would be all that is needed for ZFS?



Those packages, as well as what's listed in the depend files for those packages.

Ahh, don't you love climbing the dependency tree?

Glenn Brunette wrote a nifty little tool ... have to assume that all of the dependencies are appropriately doc'ed of course <cough>.
