Solaris10 Package Creation with variable
Dear All,

I am trying to build a solaris package with a variable, so that it can be installed with an environment. The prototype file contains the variables for user and group that can be parameterised during the package installation. The following is the prototype file and the error when building the package,

Code:
i pkginfo
i copyright
f none libiculx.so 0755 $dan $egroup
f none libicuuc.so 0755 $dan $egroup
f none libicui18n.so 0755 $dan $egroup


Code:
bash-3.00# pkgmk -o -r ./tree -d /var/spool/pkg/ -f prototype 
## Building pkgmap from package prototype file.
ERROR in prototype:
    garbled entry
    - pathname: libiculx.so
    - problem: no value defined for build variable <$dan>.
pkgmk: ERROR: unable to build pkgmap from prototype file
## Packaging was not successful.

Thanks for your valuable suggestions in advance

Sanchan

install-solaris

install-solaris(1M)													       install-solaris(1M)

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.

       install-solaris	exists	only  on  the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the  for more
       details.

       install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the
       installation media. Refer to the  for disk space requirements.

       Refer to the  for more information on the various menus and selections.
