[OpenIndiana-discuss] SFW Packages left for migration

[Grüninger, Andreas (LGL Extern)]

Hi 

I would like to publish some packages of our internal repository.
My p5m files are created with some script magic and contain user and group information in the actions.
I am wondering now why user and  group not defined in the existing p5m files e.g. sg3_utils.p5m?
When I have a look in the contents of the package in the repository user and group information are defined in the actions
Which part of the building process adds the use and group information?

Thanks

Andreas

This happens when new package is added and is needed for building (gmake env-check/env-prep is not yet automatically called).

I don’t expect it and that’s the reason why it is documented in vagrant.md how to get it up and running.

Rollbacking ZFS dataset of dirty workspace is usually faster than git clean -fdx, I used to use it occasionally.

Can you elaborate? How does it fail?

Michael’s work is pending the annoucement before we achieve one last thing, stay tuned ;)
