Just out of curiosity...
Is there any way in Solaris to get a list of package dependancies? Or is
pkgadd just stupid? Or is it User Head Gap? It seems whenever I install
something that was compiled against something I don't have installed, it
installs anyways, then I'm left to figure out what I need. RPM's, as much as
they suck (Yeah. Yeah. That's my opinion of them.), at least tell me what I
don't have installed.
I don't know if it's a bad thing or not, but I'm mostly past the point of
really caring how it gets installed, if it automagically goes out and gets
dependancies or whatnot. In the good old days, when I had an over-abundance of
time, I just compiled everything. Now, I just want stuff to WORK once it's
installed.
Anyhoo.
