Re: pkg/45289: Using pkg_add command from pkgsrc on Solaris 10 zones

[Zdenek Tlusty <tlusty%vse.cz@localhost>]

Yes,
bash-4.2# mkdir /usr/pkg
mkdir: Failed to make directory "/usr/pkg"; Read-only file system
bash-4.2# mkdir /usr/pkg/bin
mkdir: Failed to make directory "/usr/pkg/bin"; File exists

Are there something like "error code reporting precedence" - so the EEXIST
error has the precedence before EROFS in POSIX?

BR,

Zdenek
