Summary: RFE: Display the full target path when using
--extract
Description:
When using --extract, could pkgutil display the full target path instead of
just /var/opt/csw/pkgutil/packages? I use the --extract feature quite often
and the full path would make it easier to simply copy and paste.
Example invocation:
# pkgutil -Nd --extract postfix
Parsing catalog, may take a while...
Package list: CSWpostfix-2.4.6,REV=2008.05.28
Total size: 9.4 MB
Fetching CSWpostfix-2.4.6,REV=2008.05.28 (1/1)...
Extracting CSWpostfix-2.4.6,REV=2008.05.28
(/var/opt/csw/pkgutil/packages)...

Howdy Peter. What I would love to see is:
Extracting CSWpostfix-2.4.6,REV=2008.05.28 to
/var/opt/csw/pkgutil/packages/CSWpostfix
This way one could copy and paste the package root right away for further
inspection (because that's what I usually do upon extracting, no sense in
extracting alone).
Further to this: do you think it is feasible/sensible to extract packages
to a version specific directory? This could facilitate working with
multiple package revisions in parallel (e.g. one from current and one from
testing).
Extracting CSWpostfix-2.4.6,REV=2008.05.28 to
/var/opt/csw/pkgutil/packages/CSWpostfix-2.4.6,REV=2008.05.28
