Installing the Binary Compatibility Packages

These packages are optionally installable and require that the Source Compatibility Package also be installed. The SunOS Binary Compatibility Package is called SUNWbcp and the Open Windows Binary Compatibility Package is called SUNWowbcp.

See the Solaris Advanced Installation Guide or x86: Installing Solaris Software for details on installing optional packages and the Source Compatibility Guide for details on the Source Compatibility Package.

If you customize your software installation, and want to use the binary compatibility packages, you must make sure you install both compatibility packages.
