Summary:                    Package dependency errors
Description: 
A number of packages have a dependency on the package "CSWfconfig", but as
near as I can tell, there is no package CSWfconfig.  There is a package
CSWfontconfig.  There is a package CSWfconfig-dev.  This package is a stub
that depends upon CSWfontconfig-dev.  I deduce from this that the package
CSWfconfig has been renamed CSWfontconfig.  There's a "stub" for the "-dev"
version, but not for the stable version.

I would think that either you would want to create a "stub" package for
CSWfconfig or update the prerequisites for the various packages that have a
dependency on it.

PS: It would be nice if your filenames and package names were more in sync.
 For example, the package CSWbdb47 is in the file 

berklydb47.4.7.25,REV=2009.10.18_rev=p4-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz

I would recommend that the package name and base filename be EXACTLY the
same.  For example, the file could be named

CSWbdb47.4.7.25,REV=2009.10.18_rev=p-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz

Or the other way around.  Anyway, the point is, when you get an warning
about a dependency, make it easier to determine which file contains the
package you need.

Hi,

I guess the first question is why do you even get a dependency warning? If
you go to the manual
http://www.opencsw.org/manual/for-administrators/getting-started.html you
see that the installation procedure is (1) use pkgadd to install pkgutil
and (2) use pkgutil to install everything else. Are you following it?
