SolarisPackages

Building solaris packages

Works just like the rest of fpm. Set your target to "solaris" (flag: -t solaris)

Simple overview:

# Download jenkins
wget http://mirrors.jenkins-ci.org/war/1.415/jenkins.war

# Package it up
fpm -s dir -t solaris -a all -n jenkins -v 1.415 --prefix /opt/local/jenkins jenkins.war 

# Install it.
pkgadd -d jenkins_1.415_all.solaris/h
