Hello,

Is there a way to install a depot so that you tell it where to install it?

cheers

Hmm, not done this for ages but from memory you create your area

mkdir /mysoftware

and then register as a depot :

swreg -l depot /mysoftware

Think this should work ...

damm, it doidn't work, you don't appear to be able to create an empty depot ...

OK, this seems to work, though you seem to have to copy something in to start with :

I downloaded a patch then "unshared it "


sh PHCO_26252

then create new depot
mkdir /tmp/test
swpackage -s PHCO_26252.depot -d /tmp/test

Register depot :
swreg -l depot /tmp/test

job done
