while building packages on Solaris 10 (without IPS), pkgbuild failed with the following errors:

i patched pkgbuild.pl to forcibly disable IPS, which fixed the problem.

Is this still happening with pkgbuild 1.0.101?

[Laszlo (Laca) Peter]

i mean 1.3.101...

[Laszlo (Laca) Peter]

I think this is fixed, please check in the next release.

I'm leaving it open until someone can confirm that it's fixed.
