Thus spake Richy Kim (richy@apple.com): > that is why we are evaluating it.

Yes, see the lib/sysinstall directory. There are working example scripts, which are able to generate a database, create sample-packages and install/remove them. Also included is a now non-working graphical frontend, but it uses the old API as well. The other example scripts are command-line utilities, though, and do therefore work. > is that what is (soley) needed to test the packaging features? No, that was an example for Neil Blakey-Milner, who wanted to write a package manager for the current ports-system.
