Solaris tools to view files within a package

dazdaz · 03-26-2008, 11:51 AM

Hi,

How do I find out the files within a Solaris package using standard Solaris OS commands ?

Under Linux there are 2 methods that I would use to do this but I'm now in Solaris world :-)

Code:

 rpm -qpil filename.rpm
 rpm2cpio < BLAH-CC-LSF-5.1-14.i386.rpm | cpio -tv

Thanks

Assuming your package is in the filesystem format (eg. packages on the installation media):

Code:

cat <packageName>/pkgmap

If your package is in the datastream format, first convert it to the previous format:

Code:

pkgtrans <packageFile> /tmp
cat /tmp/<packageName>/pkgmap
