Hi people, okay so i downloaded some java patches. Their extension was .tgz. I gunzipped them and now they have become .tar.
Now, how do i go about installing them.
Thanks.

Typically, it's nothing more than tar xvf mypatches.tar (substituting the actual name for "mypatches") and that will create a mypatches directory just below the CWD. You then cd to mypatches and there will almost always be a file "README" that gives the installation instructions.

It was a gzip'ped tarball file.
Create the tarball then gzip it.

To get it out, ungzip
tar -xvf

These steps can be combined in a single line command

Can anyone kindly, translate the creating a depot instructions in english for me. Thanks.
Where do i get the create depot script from!!!
Creating a depot
----------------

2. Run the create_depot script as user "root". create_depot_hp-ux_11
must run on a 11.X system. The create_depot_hp-ux script unpacks the
patches, and uses swcopy to create the /tmp/patches/depot directory.

3. After the depot is created, remove the individual patches, .text, and
.depot files.

4. If you are creating more than one depot, rename the
/tmp/patches/depot directory, and remove /tmp/patches/depot.psf.

Note that your tar listing includes the very file you are seeking, create_depot_hp-ux_11. In this case,
mkdir /var/tmp/patches
cd /var/tmp/patches
tar xvf /tmp/j1.tar
sh ./create_depot_hp-ux_11

Hi,

you have to run the script as 'root'.
As another user you don't have the permissions!

Hi,

additionally to other information in this thread, you can also unzip/untar in a single command.

- list contents of archive:
gunzip -cd file.tgz | tar -tvf -

- extract contents of archive:
gunzip -cd file.tgz | tar -xvf -
