Software packaged using these tools
The following is a list of software the author of this
package has created Solaris packages for. This is in no way
a comprehensive list, just an example of the sort of utilities
which can be easily packaged using the pkg-tools
utilities.
With the exception of perl, all packages were created
with nothing more than calling build-pkg with perhaps
a simple-proj beforehand if manual pages were installed.

The creation of the perl
package required the mounting of the /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib
directory into the chroot() area. Thus the command line which
was required for building perl Solaris package was:
build-pkg -y '-l /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/' make install
For more details on this, see the build-pkg(1)
manual page.
