Gary,
I just noticed your email subject line has the old expiration date
so maybe you did not see the new spec that was sent out last week.
Here is the updated spec that was sent out last week (changes included
adding the environment variables used, Garrett's suggestion to
make the command links uncommitted, making librmt.so.1 private):
Date:
Mar 13, 2008
Author:

Proposal:
Integrate schily tar (star), a tar-like clone with more
features and rmt.
Details:
This case supercedes PSARC/2004/480, which was approved on
June 16, 2004. Since that time, Solaris policies regarding
open source have changed, specifically in the areas of
interface taxonomy and installed locations for open source
components.
Due to resource constraints, at this time I would also like to
slightly limit the scope of the original work, specifically
changes to ufsdump/ufsrestore to use the schily librmt. This
would be moved to possible "future changes", list as specified in
the original case, leaving us with:
Current changes:
- /usr/sbin/rmt executable from ON replaced by the rmt from star
- /etc/default/rmt configuration file added (defaults to full
access)
- /usr/lib/librmt.so.1 library added
- /usr/bin/star executable added
- /usr/bin/ustar symlink to star added
- /usr/bin/scpio symlink to star added
- /usr/bin/spax symlink to star added
- usr/src/cmd/rmt removed from ON build and/or deleted
- man page modifications as dictated by SFW and Tech Pubs guidelines
The original case was approved for patch binding, but given the
pathname changes for open source components, introduced in Nevada, I
would like to amend that to seek minor release binding.
