Operating Systems Solaris Pkgadd error no packages found in /var Post 302950872 by HannibalRex on Wednesday 29th of July 2015 03:13:53 PM

Pkgadd error no packages found in /var

Hello all!
So I'm trying to do an install, I'm using a command like
Code:
 pkgadd -d /opt/te_agent_8.1.0_en_solaris_sparc/te_agent.pkg TWEagent

And receive the following:
Code:
pkgadd: ERROR: no packages were found in </var/tmp/dstreAAAAXaq3z>

So what gives? Why is it looking in /var/tmp? I'm telling it which package to use, or is it looking for some dependency on /var/tmp to install the package I am trying?

Any ideas would be much appreciated... All I'm trying to do is a fresh install of Tripwire, seems like it should be pretty straight forward, but I didn't build the systems I am working on and each one seems to be a little wonky, no two are the same.
I should mention, this is Solaris 11.2 SPARC
Thanks for any help,
JP

NAME
debuginfo-install - install debuginfo packages and their dependencies SYNOPSIS
debuginfo-install package DESCRIPTION
debuginfo-install is a program which installs the RPMs needed to debug the specified package. The package argument can be a wildcard, but will only match installed packages. debuginfo-install will then enable any debuginfo repositories, and install the relevant debuginfo rpm. EXAMPLES
Download and install all the RPMs needed to debug the kernel RPM: debuginfo-install kernel WARNING MESSAGES
Could not find debuginfo for: You may sometimes see warning messages about certain packages not being found if you run debuginfo-install for a wildcard or glob. Debuginfo packages are not necessary for "noarch" RPMs; these will generate a warning message. Additionally, On 64-bit systems, no multilib debuginfo packages are published, so if you have 32-bit packages installed, these will also generate warning messages. FILES
As debuginfo-install uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the information, it relies on YUM configuration for its default values like which repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details: /etc/yum.conf /etc/yum/repos.d/ /var/cache/yum/ SEE ALSO
yum.conf (5) http://yum-utils.baseurl.org/ http://yum.baseurl.org/ AUTHORS
See the Authors file included with this program. BUGS
There are of course no bugs, but should you find any, you should first consult the FAQ section on http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq and if unsuccessful in finding a resolution contact the mailing list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org. To file a bug use http://bugzilla.redhat.com for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs. James Antill 21 October 2008 debuginfo-install(1)
