CUPS installation issue on Solaris 10 branded zone

[Fishwick Keith]

Ok
I will follow the instructions for installing cupsclient.

BUT
I did follow the instructions on the OpenCSW website for 'Getting started with CUPS'
But all I ended up doing was installing the long list of packages you mentioned at the top of your email
So it didn't really help me get started ... or did it ?
Did I need these packages at all for CUPS installation ?

Also, can you answer my query please about the class action scripts

this downloads imagemagick coreutils vim ggrep gsed, not cups!
if you can't install cupsclient directly, run:
pkgutil \
  --stream \
  --target=sparc:5.10 \
  --output cups.pkg \
  --yes \
  --download \
cupsclient

Hi,

I am now very confused !

These are the steps I followed the other day :-

1) On SERVER_A
pkgadd  -d  http://get.opencsw.org/now
2) pkgutil  -U  -u  pkgutil
3) I then wanted to use pkgutil to build a package stream.
So I ran :-

pkgutil \
  --stream \
  --target=sparc:5.10 \
  --output cups.pkg \
  --yes \
  --download \
  imagemagick coreutils vim ggrep gsed

This gave me a file called cups.pkg
Plus a list of pkgadd's which I placed into a new shell script called cups_order

4) Copied cups.pkg file and cups_order script to SERVER_B where I want to install CUPS
5) On SERVER_B
./cups_order
This ran all the pkgadd's and finished successfully
But obviously the following are missing from /opt/csw/bin :-
/usr/csw/bin/lp
/usr/csw/bin/lpstat
/usr/csw/bin/cancel

Which is why I sent my original email to you

Now your response says :-
Haven't you installed the pkgutil tool? You can just execute "pkgutil -i cupsclient". This will install cupsclient with all it's dependencies.

Well yes I think I did install the pkgutil tool ... BUT ON SERVER_A (as SERVER_B has no internet access)
I want the cupsclient package installing on SERVER_B


Please can you tell me how I get cupsclient installed on SERVER_B
Also, are the class action scripts new ? (I didn't see them mentioned on the webpage the yesterday)
And what do I need to do with them to get them installed etc ?

Haven't you installed the pkgutil tool? You can just execute "pkgutil -i cupsclient". This will install cupsclient with all it's dependencies.

Yes, the class action scripts are also needed.
