- Install SUNWspro: Download the binary tarball and untar it into /opt/SUNWspro so that the compiler is available at /opt/SUNWspro/bin
- Set the PATH variable: Remove the /usr/gnu/bin and add /opt/SUNWspro/bin (my PATH is /opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sfw/bin)
- Pull the ips sources from the ips-gate at opensolaris.org
- $ mkdir ws ; cd ws
- $ hg clone ssh://anon@hg.opensolaris.org/hg/pkg/gate ips-gate
- Build the ips sources
- $ cd ips-gate/src
- $ make
- $ make install
- The installable SVR4 package consisting of IPS components is now available. On my box it is,
- $ ls ../packages/i386
There is an excellent tutorial on IPS by Michal Pryc at http://blogs.sun.com/migi/entry/create_your_own_opensolaris_ips2
After being through with the above tutorial, for those interested in the implementation details, the next step would be to go through the documented information at <ips-gate>/doc and code at <ips-gate>/src
