  •      At minimum, pkginfo file should contain:
    
         PKG="GNUbzip2"
         NAME="GNU bzip2 1.0.3"
         VERSION="1.0.3"

• creating prototype file for build with configure

  •      create the software  `configure --prefix=/dir', where dir is temporary install directory.
         e.g /opt/local
         make install
         'find /opt/local -print >/tmp/files'
          
         'cat /tmp/files |pkgproto >/tmp/prototype
          
         this will create a /tmp/prototype

• preinstall file

  •       preinstall is run as root when the package is actually installing.
          An abort here will require the user pkgrm the half installled package.
          pkgadd ask for run this script

• postinstall file

  •        postinstall script is run after the rest of the packade installed.
           with it can use the just installed software,install kernel drives,create devices and and and.
           pkgadd ask for run this script

  == Creating the package ===

  •        pkgmk -o -r / -d /tmp -f /tmp/prototype
    
           pkgtrans -s /tmp /tmp/GNUbzip2.1.0.3.i386.Solaris.2.10.pkg GNUbzip

• creating prototype file for build with DESTDIR or INSTALL_DIR in Makefile

  •      "make DESTDIR=/tmp/pkg-staging install"

          pkgproto /tmp/pkg-staging=/ ) >prototype
