Background: I'm having trouble installing CSWcommon. Initially I tried
an upgrade, then a remove
and install. The complaint remains the same:
Installing common - common files and dirs for CSW packages as <CSWcommon>
## Installing part 1 of 1.
/opt/csw/bin/sparc <symbolic link>
/opt/csw/doc <symbolic link>
/opt/csw/info <symbolic link>
/opt/csw/lib/32 <symbolic link>
/opt/csw/lib/64 <symbolic link>
/opt/csw/lib/locale <symbolic link>
WARNING: /opt/csw/lib/sparc may not overwrite a populated directory.
/opt/csw/share/locale/bg/LC_TIME <symbolic link>
/opt/csw/share/locale/locale.alias
[ verifying class <none> ]
pkgadd: ERROR: /opt/csw/lib/sparc could not be installed.
Installation of <CSWcommon> partially failed.
ERROR: could not add CSWcommon
So, I renamed the above dir created an empty one and got common to
install successfully.
Common configured the above to be:
# ls -ld /opt/csw/lib/sparc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 1 Jun 29 08:31 /opt/csw/lib/sparc
-> .
So, I took a look at the old dir and it truly is not empty:
# ls sparc.old
libswt-cde-motif-2135.so libswt-motif-2135.so
I'm thinking easy enough, I'll just move the libs up but:
# ls -ld libswt-cde-motif-2135.so libswt-motif-2135.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 30 Mar 18 14:41
libswt-cde-motif-2135.so -> sparc/libswt-cde-motif-2135.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 26 Mar 18 14:41
libswt-motif-2135.so -> sparc/libswt-motif-2135.so
links exist that point to the dir I moved.
What should it be and how did this happen to me?
TIA
Gary
