Application Packaging Developer's Guide

Example-A Traditional Relocatable Package

This example shows what a traditional relocatable package may look like. The package is to be located in /opt/SUNWstuf, and its pkginfo file and pkgmap file might look like this.

The pkginfo File

# pkginfo file
PKG=SUNWstuf
NAME=software stuff 
ARCH=sparc
VERSION=1.0.0,REV=1.0.5
CATEGORY=application
DESC=a set of utilities that do stuff
BASEDIR=/opt
VENDOR=Sun Microsystems, Inc.
HOTLINE=Please contact your local service provider
EMAIL=
MAXINST=1000
CLASSES=none
PSTAMP=hubert990707141632

The pkgmap File

1 f none SUNWstuf/EZstuf/dirdel 0555 bin bin 40 773 751310229

1 f none SUNWstuf/HRDstuf/mkeasy 0555 bin bin 40 773 751310229
1 i pkginfo 348 28411 760740163
1 i postinstall 323 26475 751309908
1 i postremove 402 33179 751309945
1 i preinstall 321 26254 751310019
1 i preremove 320 26114 751309865

This is referred to as the traditional method because every package object is installed to the base directory defined by the BASEDIR parameter from the pkginfo file. For example, the first object in the pkgmap file is installed as the directory /opt/SUNWstuf.
