This will generate a package 12 13Scripts used to generate the package 14 copyright 15 i.preserve 16 inetd.conf 17 prototype.pre 18 r.preserve 19 20Makefile - makefile that does the work 21 make clean all 22 Builds a package. 23 24 In order to do this we horribly abuse the various 25 things that you would normally expect a Solaris Package 26 generation script to do. 27 28 a) We first compile and install the LPRng software in 29 a temporary location (i.e. /var/tmp/LPRng-...) so that 30 this contains only the LPRng installation files 31 b) We use this to generation a packing list 32 c) We then get the various postinstall and preremove 33 scripts from the generated stuff and put them into 34 the files in the current directory. 35 d) We make the package. 36 37You might also want to try: 38 make checkit 39 - checks build and makes package 40 make removeit 41 - removes package 42 make installit 43 - installs package 44 45Patrick ("Automate whereever possible") Powell 46
