Bug #782: automake package does not install `automake`
https://www.illumos.org/issues/782

Author: Matt Connolly
Status: Closed
Priority: Normal
Assignee: OI Userland
Category: SFW (Solaris Freeware)
Target version: oi_151_stable
Difficulty: Bite-size
Tags: automake


The package `developer/build/automake-110` does not install the `automake` or `aclocal` commands. (As those names, at least).

For example:
# pkg install developer/build/automakte-110
# automake
... not found error

It installs `/usr/bin/automake-1.10` and the user is required to do this:
# ln -s /usr/bin/automake-1.10 /usr/bin/automake
# ln -s /usr/bin/aclocal-1.10 /usr/bin/aclocal

to be able to use the commands in the expected manner.

Is it possible to update the package installer to create these symlinks?

Especially in the case where a user installs only one version of automake, there is no need to manually resolve the version.
