Solaris PKG Generation Patrick Powell Tue Jun 6 17:52:53 PDT 2000 README,v 1.1 2000/06/09 21:55:42 papowell Exp This is a set of scripts to make a Solaris pkg distribtion UNPACK - test script for regression testing This allows you to copy the LPRng distribution to a directory on a Solaris system and then do 'sh UNPACK'. This will generate a package Scripts used to generate the package copyright i.preserve inetd.conf prototype.pre r.preserve Makefile - makefile that does the work make clean all Builds a package. In order to do this we horribly abuse the various things that you would normally expect a Solaris Package generation script to do. a) We first compile and install the LPRng software in a temporary location (i.e. /var/tmp/LPRng-...) so that this contains only the LPRng installation files b) We use this to generation a packing list c) We then get the various postinstall and preremove scripts from the generated stuff and put them into the files in the current directory. d) We make the package. You might also want to try: make checkit - checks build and makes package make removeit - removes package make installit - installs package Patrick ("Automate whereever possible") Powell
