Hi List,

I'm not sure whether Solaris 2.6 come with Pine.
Therefore I downloaded pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt.gz
from www.sunfreeware.com. Below is what I did :-

-------------------------------------------------------
# cd pine
# ls -l
total 4304
-rw-r--r--   1 root     other    2187293 Oct  8 14:20
pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt.gz

# pwd
/tmp_disk/pine

# ls -l
total 4304
-rw-r--r--   1 root     other    2187293 Oct  8 14:20
pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt.gz

# sum pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt.gz
57663 4273 pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt.gz

# gunzip pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt.gz

# ls -l pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt
-rw-r--r--   1 root     other    7021056 Oct  8 14:20
pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt

# pkgadd -d .
pkgadd: ERROR: no packages were found in
</tmp_disk/pine>

-------------------------------------------------------
As u can see the begining of the
pine-3.96-sol26-sparc-opt file looks like any standard
package file but why can't I install it using "pkgadd
-d ." ?

Thank you
