OpenIndiana/SunOS binary pkgsrc repository



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


As promised, OI folks have given access to a public repository. My last build gave more than 6000 packages as shown here: http://pkgsrc-repo.uk.openindiana.org/reports/last/report.html

The repository is here: http://pkgsrc-repo.uk.openindiana.org/2011Q1/

For now, it is still necessary to bootstrap pkgsrc in order to use the repository, for example by using `ipp'. We will soon provide a `pkgadd' bootstrap package with pkgin included.

Once bootstraped, pkgin can be easily be installed and will work as expected:

# pkgin av|wc -l
    6061
# pkgin in php5-gd
calculating dependencies... done.

1 packages to be upgraded: png-1.4.5

6 packages to be installed: xmlcatmgr-2.2nb1 libxml2-2.7.8nb2 png-1.5.1 php-5.2.17nb3 jpeg-8c php5-gd-5.2.17nb1 (5293K to download, 19M to install)

proceed ? [y/N]

There still is many offender packages like sysutils/hal net/avahi audio/arts audio/nas but we received many patches that will help fix those rather quickly. More documentation and fixes are coming, some bits are already available here: http://www.illumos.org/projects/worsoe/wiki

Thanks everyone !
