All,
even though you've been seeing me (claiming to) work on Sparc, I thought
it'd be nice to be able to show off (and use!) kde on my intel laptop
(running OpenSolaris, nv build 93), so I wget'ed (or "wgot" ?) all the
FOSS* and KDE packages/tarballs off of bionicmutton and started gunzip|tar
-xf'ing and then pkgadding the FOSS packages one by one.
When all this had finished, I was missing about 12-13 packages that hadn't
been installed. I found a core file in the directory where I was doing all
this, and pkgadd'ing one of the pkgs resulted in a
WARNING: Stale lock installed for pkgadd, pkg FOSSlibidn quit in analysis
state.
Removing lock.
and the pkg, despite no more errors, is not installed. I trussed some of
these attempts as well as an attempted removal, which also produced a
corefile. they all seem to fail shortly after having read
/var/sadm/pkg/FOSSgettext/pkginfo; here's the stack of the pkginstall core
according to mdb:
0804570c libadm.so.1`verscmp+0x50(206c6175, 80a2fa8)
08045728 libadm.so.1`ckinst+0x41(fea1575a, 80a2050, 80a2fa8, 0, 206c6175)
08045bf0 libadm.so.1`ckinfo+0x16e(fea1575a, 0, 206c6175)
08045c20 libadm.so.1`fpkginst+0xa4(8097b1a, 0, 206c6175)
I'm going to continue searching, but I thought maybe someone has already
seen this and could share ...
TIA
Michael
