[OpenIndiana-discuss] Knowledge Base for Compiling and InstallingSoftware Not Available as Packages.

[DormitionSkete@hotmail.com]

How did you get OpenCSW to work in OpenIndiana?

I tried it, and couldn't get the repository to load.  When I did "pkgadd -d http://get.opencsw.org/now", it errored out.  Trying to add it via the gui didn't fare any better.  I didn't feel like going onto their newsgroup for assistance, so I just installed from source.

By the time I learned about them, I think I was almost done installing stuff on our server.

Same thing with Sunfreeware.
