order - package installation order description file
DESCRIPTION
The package installation order file, .order, is an ASCII file specifying the order in which packages must be installed based on their pre-
requisite dependencies. Any package with prerequisite dependencies must be installed after any packages it lists as a prerequisite
dependency in its depend file.
A .order file is required for the OS product. The .order file must reside in the top-level directory containing the product.
The ordering is specified as a list of package identifiers, from the first package to be installed to the last, one package identifier per
line.
NOTES
The depend file supports incompatible and reverse dependencies. These dependency types are not recognized in the order file.

depend - software dependencies file
DESCRIPTION
depend is an ASCII file used to specify information concerning software dependencies for a particular package. The file is created by a
software developer.
Each entry in the depend file describes a single software package. The instance of the package is described after the entry line by giving
the package architecture and/or version. The format of each entry and subsequent instance definition is:
type pkg name
(arch)version
(arch)version
...
The fields are:
type Defines the dependency type. Must be one of the following characters:
P Indicates a prerequisite for installation; for example, the referenced package or versions must be installed.
I Implies that the existence of the indicated package or version is incompatible.
R Indicates a reverse dependency. Instead of defining the package's own dependencies, this designates that another
package depends on this one. This type should be used only when an old package does not have a depend file, but
relies on the newer package nonetheless. Therefore, the present package should not be removed if the designated
old package is still on the system since, if it is removed, the old package will no longer work.
pkg Indicates the package abbreviation.
name Specifies the full package name.
(arch)version Specifies a particular instance of the software. A version name cannot begin with a left parenthesis. The instance specifi-
cations, both (arch) and version, are completely optional, but each (arch)version pair must begin on a new line that begins
with white space. A null version set equates to any version of the indicated package.
EXAMPLES

P SUNWcsu Core Solaris, (Usr)
