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

[DormitionSkete@hotmail.com]

Sorry.  I'll go to the OpenCSW group if I find I need their packages.  

OpenIndiana didn't seem to be listed on their website as something they support.  And after three weeks of my first OI install, I probably wasn't thinking very clearly.  System admin stuff isn't an area I'm very strong in.  

Have a nice night!
