Re: Creation of package

I'm not sure you can make an empty package, I stumbled on a bug recently where swpackage won't even add an empty directory to a package. Your best bet is to package a dummy directory and file. If that can be of any help I have a script here that saves you of the trouble of building your own .psf:

>could you please explain the above command?

(I'm not sure how Vinod's swcopy relates to your initial question?)

swcopy will copy the SD bundle/product ATTSENDMAIL, from the depot /Depot/pkg/11 to the depot /var/tmp/sendmail.depot.
