Hi Mark,
mirror for a network of machines without internet connectivity. Is it
possible to create a mirror including all metadata, removing the need
for any contact with pkg.opensolaris.org when installing/upgrading
packages?
I have carried out some limited testing with
http://pastebin.com/f22f2754d , which is a simple script that
downloads the latest version of each package and republishes it on a
local repository, thus effectively building a local mirror with all
metadata. It seems to me that it's working fine. I'm willing to polish
the rough edges (or rewrite it) with you or anyone who is interested
in that.
This will break in the near future, and we politely ask folks to not
use scripts such as these.
Can you elaborate more on why?
