HPUX::SDUX 0.03

HPUX::SDUX is a Perl module for creating SD-UX software depots of Perl modules.

SYNOPSIS

perl -MHPUX::SDUX -e wmf
make; make test; make depot

HPUX::SDUX is a Perl module to assist creating SD-UX software depots for Perl modules on HP-UX. As such, it is utterly useless for Perl users on other platforms.

This version assumes the use of HP-UX 11i and PSF (Product Specification File) layout version 1.0, as outlined in Software Distributor Administration Guide for HP-UX 11i . It may work on other versions, but it is not tested.

After unpacking a CPAN module, move to the expanded directory and say

perl -MHPUX::SDUX -e wmf

This creates intermediate file Makefile.SDUX, based on Makefile.PL in the current directory, and writes Makefile by executing Makefile.SDUX. The resulting Makefile contains a modified target clean and a new target depot, so that you can only follow with

make; make test; make depot

The target depot will install the module in the sdux subdirectory, writes module.psf and invokes swpackage. Thus certin privileges are required for this target.
