[oi-dev] Latest ksh93 changes in illumos-gate have impacts on REQUIRED_PACKAGES

[stes@PANDORA.BE]

Hi Andreas,

The Makefile is one thing, but the manifest of a package also contains a 

depend fmri=pkg:/SUNWcs at 0.5.11-2020.0.1.20416 type=require

dependency on SUNWcs.

The above is for example from the manifest of squeak-4-nodisplay.

http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster/manifest/0/runtime%2Fsqueak-4-nodisplay%404.19.6%2C5.11-2020.0.1.0%3A20210320T200944Z


Actually I suppose the manifest dependency is the most important issue - more so than the Makefile,
which is the tool to produce the manifest by the 'gmake publish'.

Is "pkglint" somehow capable of making a check to check for this dependency ?

If yes, then pkglint could perhaps be configured to catch packages that have not updated their Makefile yet.

I'm not sufficiently well familiar with pkglint to answer, but I suspect pkglint may have capabilities to check actions, such as the depend action on SUNWcs.
