You may not have noticed that there has been a split between Blastwave and the CSW project. Blastwave will create a new project for Solaris 10+, immediately dropping support for Solaris 8 and 9, they are also changing a lot of other things. Probably the existing tree of packages will be frozen. CSW is now located at http://www.opencsw.org and you can find Mantis there at http://www.opencsw.org/mantis. The project will still support Solaris 8 until March 2009 as previously stated. Both projects have some fixing to do until either is fully operational. -- /peter From Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com Thu Aug 28 23:17:14 2008 From: Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com (Fechner, Jon L.)

The mailserver was independent of the Blastwave activities and is now used for the OpenCSW project. The main focus for OpenCSW are the production releases of Solaris (that is Solaris 8 to 10, both Sparc and x86) whereas Blastwave is heading toward OpenSolaris and Solaris Express.

OpenCSW will continue the project as you know it so you can ask your questions here if you want to. Dennis is starting a new project with different goals/methods so you can subscribe to his mailing list as well if you want to keep up with that. -- /peter From Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com Fri Aug 29 00:02:24 2008 From: Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com (Fechner, Jon L.)

We are using the CSW packages on our production Solaris machines so on the surface it seems to make sense to stick with CSW rather than Blastwave, yet it is a little sad to see the split. Anyway, it looks like most of the repositories that were used a month ago are still available for CSW. It also appears that the Blastwave (Dennis') project now has a different repository at http://blastwave.network.com/csw/. Is it safe to say then that the CSW repositories and the blastwave.network.com repository will now begin diverging with separate maintainers, focus, etc? Also, do you or anybody else know when we can expect the next stable CSW release?

It removes "./catalog", loads a new file "catalog" from the update-server to the current directory and puts its content into /var/pkg-get/catalog-example.com, leaving the new catalog file behind. For "descriptions", it loads the current version from the update-server to whatever name wget decides to use and moves the file "./descriptions" to /var/pkg-get/desc-example.com. This looks seriously wrong. I suggest to use /usr/bin/mktemp which is included in the meta clusters SUNWCmreq and up (checked for Solaris 9 and 10) and make sure that pkg-get only writes to /var/pkg-get and not to the current directory. ciao Klaus -- Psssst!

You may not have noticed that there has been a split between Blastwave and the CSW project. Blastwave will create a new project for Solaris 10+, immediately dropping support for Solaris 8 and 9, they are also changing a lot of other things. Probably the existing tree of packages will be frozen. CSW is now located at http://www.opencsw.org and you can find Mantis there at http://www.opencsw.org/mantis. The project will still support Solaris 8 until March 2009 as previously stated. Both projects have some fixing to do until either is fully operational. -- /peter From Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com Thu Aug 28 23:17:14 2008 From: Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com (Fechner, Jon L.)

The mailserver was independent of the Blastwave activities and is now used for the OpenCSW project. The main focus for OpenCSW are the production releases of Solaris (that is Solaris 8 to 10, both Sparc and x86) whereas Blastwave is heading toward OpenSolaris and Solaris Express.

OpenCSW will continue the project as you know it so you can ask your questions here if you want to. Dennis is starting a new project with different goals/methods so you can subscribe to his mailing list as well if you want to keep up with that. -- /peter From Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com Fri Aug 29 00:02:24 2008 From: Jon.Fechner at tellabs.com (Fechner, Jon L.)

We are using the CSW packages on our production Solaris machines so on the surface it seems to make sense to stick with CSW rather than Blastwave, yet it is a little sad to see the split. Anyway, it looks like most of the repositories that were used a month ago are still available for CSW. It also appears that the Blastwave (Dennis') project now has a different repository at http://blastwave.network.com/csw/. Is it safe to say then that the CSW repositories and the blastwave.network.com repository will now begin diverging with separate maintainers, focus, etc? Also, do you or anybody else know when we can expect the next stable CSW release?

You are perfectly right. I'll rephrase: Yes, that is the reason. The mailserver was independent of the Blastwave activities and is now used for the OpenCSW project.

It removes "./catalog", loads a new file "catalog" from the update-server to the current directory and puts its content into /var/pkg-get/catalog-example.com, leaving the new catalog file behind. For "descriptions", it loads the current version from the update-server to whatever name wget decides to use and moves the file "./descriptions" to /var/pkg-get/desc-example.com. This looks seriously wrong. I suggest to use /usr/bin/mktemp which is included in the meta clusters SUNWCmreq and up (checked for Solaris 9 and 10) and make sure that pkg-get only writes to /var/pkg-get and not to the current directory. ciao Klaus -- Psssst!

I've also noted that it leaves catalog files all over the place. Even worse if one had files named catalog and descriptions in the current directory of course. -- /peter
