What would it take to document the recipe for building SXCE, such that
interested /external/ community members who do not share Sun's
marketing agenda might have a shot at continuing this potentially
valuable distribution?
The process is:
- Collect SVR4 packages plus some manually filled-out forms from
consolidations into a common area (how each consolidation builds is a
detail, though they are to use a common build environment). There is
proprietary tooling for this.
- Munge data from manual forms into data used by the installer for
upgrade calculations
- Run a closed tool that generates the various SXCE images
- Test and hope it all works. As we've seen lately, it doesn't always work.
That's about as detailed as we're inclined to get about it.
