I have put a codereview for the changes necessary to implement
LSARC/2007/316 ImageMagick, a2ps, and psutils migration from
/usr/sfw to /usr
at
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~jacobs/2007-06-01_sfwnv/webrev/
The ARC case is not yet approved, so there may be some change, but this
codereview contains the changes that migrate ImageMagick, a2ps, and
psutils out of /usr/sfw and upgrade ImageMagick to 6.3.4. In this
workspace, I am introducing two new tools that can be used during the
'install' phase of building bits in the SFW gate. The first tool is a
replacement for install(1b)/install-sh, that will always install bits in
the proto area, regardless of whether or not DESTDIR works. It will
also perform gate specific post processing of the files it installs.
The second tool will apply attributes of entries in package prototype
files to the proto area. With these tools, it should no longer be
necessary to hand craft an install-sfw script to copy most bits to the
proto area.
If anyone is interested, I also have a Perl script that eases the pain
and suffering involved in generating reasonable package prototype (and
pkginfo) files for packaging bits in the SFW gate. The script uses a
combination of sources and rules to create a first stab at a package.
The results should be reviewed, but it beats doing this by hand or even
with pkgproto.
These additional tools should also be able to streamline the work
necessary to update/add bits in the Companion.
As always, constructive comments/questions are welcomed if not encouraged.
