[Pkgutil-users] what am I doing wrong?

[Don J. <pkg...@cl...>]

Hello,

I use pkgutil to add packages during Jumpstart installs, and afterwards.
I have successfully used a local package store to retrieve some packages (in front of blastwave.org).

I track the latest version of pkgutil, and edit the conf file to point to blastwave…

So today, I wanted to create a new package directory for two new packages I am trying to install.

Here is the contents of the directory.  I of course used bldcat to create the catalog.

# pwd
/naspool/solaris/packages-local/i386/5.10
# ls -lt
total 3774
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root         378 Oct  5 20:48 catalog
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root          92 Oct  5 20:48 descriptions
-rw-r--r--   1 dcj      other    1705240 Oct  5 16:41 AmandaEnterpriseBackupClient-3.1.2-i386-pc-solaris2.10.pkg.gz
-rw-r--r--   1 dcj      other      93122 Oct  5 16:41 AmandaEnterpriseClientExtensions-3.1.2-i386-pc-solaris2.10.pkg.gz

And here are the resulting contents of catalog and descriptions

# cat catalog
Amanda 3.1.2 AmandaEnterpriseBackupClient AmandaEnterpriseBackupClient-3.1.2-i386-pc-solaris2.10.pkg.gz 2efff7d45d53d11752b8810a892f2f6d 1705240 CSWgtar|CSWperl none AmandaEnterpriseBackupServer
Amanda 3.1.2 AmandaEnterpriseClientExt AmandaEnterpriseClientExtensions-3.1.2-i386-pc-solaris2.10.pkg.gz 7a1ce6cc3cd5b3c20b55d7bb4545c8bf 93122 AmandaEnterpriseBackupClient none none

# cat descriptions                                 
Amanda Enterprise Backup Client from Zmanda
Amanda Enterprise Client Extensions from Zmanda

On the machine I am attempting to install the packages on, I cannot seem to see one of the packages:

/usr/local/bin/pkgutil  -t http://nas02.clark-communications.com/solaris/packages-local -a | grep manda
20:38:36 URL:http://nas02.clark-communications.com/solaris/packages-local/i386/5.10/catalog [378/378] -> "/export/home/dcj/.pkgutil/catalog.nas02.clark-communications.com_solaris_packages-local_i386_5.10" [1]
20:38:36 URL:http://nas02.clark-communications.com/solaris/packages-local/i386/5.10/descriptions [92/92] -> "/export/home/dcj/.pkgutil/descriptions.nas02.clark-communications.com_solaris_packages-local_i386_5.10" [1]

20:38:36 URL:http://download.blastwave.org/csw/unstable/i386/5.10/descriptions [107125/107125] -> "/export/home/dcj/.pkgutil/descriptions.download.blastwave.org_csw_unstable_i386_5.10" [1]
Amanda               AmandaEnterpriseClientExt 3.1.2                       90.9 KB
amanda               CSWamanda            2.5.2p1,REV=2008.05.21       3.0 MB

So I just can't see the one package (  AmandaEnterpriseBackupClient-3.1.2-i386-pc-solaris2.10.pkg.gz )

Why not?  Is there something wrong with the package(s) themselves?  

Or am I using the tool incorrectly?
