relocation of a sw depot.

Hi,
I have a software depot, which supports relocation of the package, ie it can be installed at any location. I install the package with .l=location in software selection as following -
swinstall -s $PWD/sw.depot mysw.l=/tmp
Assuming default directory for installation is /usr/local, above command installs the sw into /tmp directory. Issue is that when I want to verify this with swlist command with -l file option or through gui, it always shows me that files are installed in /usr/local directory only, while actually they are not there.
Is there a way in swlist command which can give me a correct output, ie correct path of the installed files. Or IS THIS A BUG ???

Shalom,

Perhaps swreg -l depot the depot.

Can you post the error?

Re: relocation of a sw depot.

Hi:

Are you saying that if you query the installed software, thay you don't see the correct location?

# swlist -l file -a location
