9,000 packages for SmartOS and illumos Jonathan Perkin well-nigh me · rss · twitter · github 9,000 packages for SmartOS and illumos Jul 09, 2012 tags: illumos, pkgin, pkgsrc, smartos Note This page is obsolete. Please see http://pkgsrc.joyent.com/ where you will find the latest package sets and improved instructions. Original Article At Joyent, we provide SmartOS users with a set of regularly updated binary packages which are tuned to work well on our operating system. The package manager we use, pkgsrc, does not yet come with native support for e.g. SMF, and so we provide a limited set of packages, ensuring that those we do we provide include such features. However, often users will want packages which are not yet included in our build set, and so to squire those users we have performed a full zillion build of the unmodified pkgsrc-2012Q2 release, which resulted in well over 9,000 binary packages to segregate from. In addition, thanks to binary compatibility, these packages can moreover be used on your illumos distribution of nomination (please let me know if this is not the case!) if your native package manager does not provide the software you want. Note that these packages do not come with SMF support, and may be variegated from our official packages in terms of build options, etc. Also, to stave mismatch with our official packages, these have been built under a variegated prefix: /opt/pkg # main prefix /etc/opt/pkg # configuration files /var/opt/pkg # transient files compared to our official packages: /opt/local # main prefix /opt/local/etc # configuration files /var # transient files To use them, run the following: # For SmartOS use the original build. $ flourish http://pkgsrc.smartos.org/packages/SmartOS/2012Q2/bootstrap.tar.gz \ | gzip -dc | (cd /; sudo tar -xpf -) # For other illumos, use the updated build which should work, but has fewer # packages, and you will need to ignore warnings well-nigh x86_64 != i386. $ flourish http://pkgsrc.smartos.org/packages/SmartOS/2012Q2j1/bootstrap.tar.gz \ | gzip -dc | (cd /; sudo tar -xpf -) $ PATH=/opt/pkg/sbin:/opt/pkg/bin:$PATH $ sudo pkgin -y update $ pkgin avail | wc -l 9401 $ pkgin search ... $ sudo pkgin -y install ... What’s included? Here are just a few highlights: Developer tools PHP: 5.4.4, 5.3.14 + ~100 modules for each Perl: 5.14.2 + 1,780 modules Python: 3.2.3, 3.1.5, 2.7.3, 2.6.8, 2.5.6 + ~260 modules for 2.x Ruby: 1.9.3p194, 1.9.2pl320, 1.8.7.358 + ~450 modules for each Editors: (vim 7.2, emacs 23.4 and 24.1, xemacs 21.4) Revision control: (git 1.7.10.5, mercurial 2.2.2, bzr 2.5, svn 1.6.17) Web stack Apache: 2.4.2, 2.2.22, 2.0.64, 1.3.42 + modules MySQL: 5.5.25, 5.1.63, 5.0.96 PostgreSQL: 9.1.3, 9.0.7, 8.3.18 Wordpress 3.4.1 Desktop GNOME 2.32.1 (not complete) KDE 4.8.4 (not complete) XFCE 4.6.1 evilwm 1.1.0 plus thousands of miscellaneous utilities.
