pkgdep(1M) System Administration Commands pkgdep(1M)NAMEpkgdep - list package dependencies
SYNOPSISpkgdep [-v] [-c | -m metacluster] [-p package-path]
package-name
DESCRIPTION
The pkgdep utility displays the package dependencies for a specified
package-name. This can be useful when determining which additional
packages need to be installed to support a new package or which pack‐
ages should be installed together in a custom Jumpstart profile.
Used without the -p package-path specifier, pkgdep examines the default
package directory (/var/sadm/pkg) to find package-name. Used with the
-p option, it examines a different location such as installation media.
If the -m metacluster specifier is used, pkgdep requires that a .clus‐
tertoc file exist in the package-path. If the package-path is not spec‐
ified, the .clustertoc will be obtained from the default system loca‐
tion (/var/sadm/system/admin). Alternatively, the -c option can be used
to display only dependencies not currently installed on the system,
which examines the default package directory (/var/sadm/pkg).
OPTIONS
The following options are supported. The -m metacluster and -p pack‐
age-path specifier are described under "Operands", below.
-c
Display only dependencies which are not currently installed on the
system. This option cannot be used in conjunction with the -m spec‐
ifier.
-v
Display full package descriptions instead of just package names.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
Metaclusters
By default, pkgdep displays all the dependencies of the specified
package-name. It may be useful to list any dependencies not
included in a specific metacluster if adding a package to a custom
Jumpstart profile. To specify the metacluster to check, the follow‐
ing can be used:
-m metacluster
Display dependencies not included in metacluster. metacluster
can be any of the following:
o SUNWCXall ‐ Entire Distribution plus OEM Support
o SUNWCall ‐ Entire Distribution
o SUNWCprog ‐ Developer System Support
o SUNWCuser ‐ End User System Support
o SUNWCreq ‐ Core System Support
o SUNWCrnet ‐ Reduced Networking Core System Support
o SUNWCmreq ‐ Minimal Core System Support
Package Path
To specify an alternate directory in which to find the package,
the following can be used:
-p package-path
The path in which to find the specified package-path.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Determining Which Packages Should Be Installed Together
The following example displays dependent package descriptions for
adding the Apache Server to the Core System Support metacluster found
on a Solaris DVD.
example# pkgdep-v -m SUNWCreq \
-p /cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_10/Product SUNWapch2r
Example 2 Making Sure All Dependent Packages Are Installed
The following example checks that all the dependent packages for Apache
Server are installed. Any that are missing are listed.
example# pkgdep-c SUNWapch2r
EXIT STATUS
0
Successful completion.
1
Fatal error.
FILES
/var/sadm/pkg
Default package-path.
/var/sadm/system/admin/.clustertoc
Default file containing metacluster info.
