SUNWonld - link-editors development package.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The SUNWonld package is an internal development package containing the
link-editors and some related tools. All components live in the OSNET
source base, but not all components are delivered as part of the normal
OSNET consolidation. The intent of this package is to provide access
to new features/bugfixes before they become generally available.
General link-editor information can be found:
Comments and Questions:
Contact Rod Evans, Mike Walker and/or Seizo Sakurai.
Warnings:
The postremove script for this package employs /usr/sbin/static/mv,
and thus, besides the common core dependencies, this package also
has a dependency on the SUNWsutl package.
Patches:
If the patch has been made official, you'll find it in:
If it hasn't been released, the patch will be in:
Note, any patches logged here refer to the temporary ("T") name, as we
never know when they're made official, and although we try to keep all
patch information up-to-date the real status of any patch can be
determined from:
If it has been obsoleted, the patch will be in:
/net/on${RELEASE}-patch/on${RELEASE}/patches/${MACH}/obsolete
History:
Note, starting after Solaris 10, a (D) following the bug synopsis indicates
that a documentation change accompanies the implementation change. See the
implementation bug report for details.
The following bug fixes exist in the OSNET consolidation workspace
from which this package is created:
