Gcc compiler / depot file

Hi,

i got 2 gzip files, containing the gcc compiler & the binary libraries, but once unzipped, i get *.depot files. Can anyone point to me what to do with those depot files ? Is there a extracter avaible ?

thanks

Re: Gcc compiler / depot file

depot format is a standard SDUX format :

Run /usr/sbin/swinstall and specify the *.depot files as the "source depot path" may need to include full path !

Hi,

if you have unzipped your file ie. in /tmp then you can use:
swinstall -s /tmp/.depot
If you have X-Windows-GUI klick the software within the window and then klick Actions -> Install (analysis)...
If the analysis is succesfully done just klick the OK button and the software will be installed.
If you have terminal emulation (hpterm) press F3 to select the software, press the [TAB] key and move with the cursor key right to Actions.
Then press return and move to Install (analysis). After that move with [TAB] to the OK field and press return.

Hi,

Use swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true -s /tmp/*.depot
