toby's Journal: generate Solaris package file lists directly with install-sh

As part of the Solaris pkg creation process, a prototype file is created listing every file and directory created in the process of installing the package.

There are various ways to extract this information, but not all are convenient. By patching about 12 lines of install-sh we can generate the prototype file directly (as /tmp/prototype), with appropriate user/group/mode settings. In parallel we generate a simple file list (/tmp/files) that can be used to safely 'uninstall' the package during experimentation with packaging.

As an example, let's package Dovecot 1.1.14 in a manner suitable for a Solaris non-global zone:

This leaves the package installed, creates /tmp/prototype ready for packaging - accomplished roughly like this:

$ echo i pkginfo=./pkginfo >>prototype
$ cat pkginfo
PKG=TLGRdovecot
NAME=Dovecot IMAP/POP3 server
ARCH=i386
VERSION=1.1.14
CATEGORY=application
VENDOR=http://www.dovecot.org/
BASEDIR=

EMAIL=[e-mail]
$ pkgmk -r `pwd`
$ cd /var/spool/pkg/
$ pkgtrans -s `pwd` /tmp/TLGRdovecot-1.1.14

Remove the installed files (I suggest reviewing the file list first!)

# rm -fr $(< /tmp/files )
or
# xargs rm -fr < /tmp/files
