Well, I'm not the submitter of the PR, but as I put it in in the first place,
I feel qualified to answer. :-)
There's a tiny, but crucial bit missing in the Makefile. OOo 2.0 ships
the binary installers in the "native package format", which is RPM for
Linux and where we have rpm2pkg. For Solaris this is a different format
and I couldn't find any clues that this had been implemented somewhere
else before.
I am starting to understand the package format so I didn't want to
remove the info just to add it back a few weeks later, and I had hoped
that someone else already had experience with the packaging format, and
then he doesn't have to care about getting the distfile stuff right.
Cheers
Michael
