Summary | 0005195: Package dependency errors | |||||||||||
Description |
A number of packages have a dependency on the package "CSWfconfig", but as near as I can tell, there is no package CSWfconfig. There is a package CSWfontconfig. There is a package CSWfconfig-dev. This package is a stub that depends upon CSWfontconfig-dev. I deduce from this that the package CSWfconfig has been renamed CSWfontconfig. There's a "stub" for the "-dev" version, but not for the stable version. I would think that either you would want to create a "stub" package for CSWfconfig or update the prerequisites for the various packages that have a dependency on it. PS: It would be nice if your filenames and package names were more in sync. For example, the package CSWbdb47 is in the file berklydb47.4.7.25,REV=2009.10.18_rev=p4-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz I would recommend that the package name and base filename be EXACTLY the same. For example, the file could be named CSWbdb47.4.7.25,REV=2009.10.18_rev=p-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz Or the other way around. Anyway, the point is, when you get an warning about a dependency, make it easier to determine which file contains the package you need. |

Hi, I guess the first question is why do you even get a dependency warning? If you go to the manual ^] you see that the installation procedure is (1) use pkgadd to install pkgutil and (2) use pkgutil to install everything else. Are you following it? Maciej |
