Welcome to Skunkware for the SVR5 based UnixWare 7

Most of the UnixWare 7 Skunkware packages have been prepared for installation using the pkgadd facility.

To install one of these packages, run the command (as root) :

    # /usr/sbin/pkgadd -d <download-point>/<package-name>.pkg all

where <package-name> refers to the NAME in the first column below and <download-point> refers to the directory in which the pkg file(s) were downloaded.

The SCO Skunkware UnixWare 7 archives include the following directories :

dist
