This is the top-level of the Solaris Community SoftWare archive.
Volunteers create binary packages for Solaris, that anyone can use.

(Unless you are in a cryptographically embargoed country like
 Libya, Iran, Iraq, and other excluded countries barred from crypto
 by the US State department, in which case you may not use this archive)

List of "master" sites, can be found at
  http://www.opencsw.org/mirrors

All CSW packages install into /opt/csw, with the binaries usually found in
/opt/csw/bin

The simplest way to download and install packages, is to grab
the portable "pkg_get.pkg" package and install it on your system.
Download it from this directory, run

 # pkgadd -d pkg_get.pkg

as root

[You may also need to install either wget-i386 or wget-sparc as wget 
 somewhere in your PATH ]

You should then edit /opt/csw/etc/pkg-get.conf, or
create /etc/opt/csw/pkg-get.conf if you prefer,
and update it to use the closest mirror site to you, 
and the appropriate subdirectory;    "current", or "stable"

DIRECTORIES:
  "current" is for freshly released packages.
  "stable" is for packages that have been tested for a while in "current".
  "unstable" is just a symlink to "current", for legacy purposes.

There you will find details on volunteering to maintain packages, or
on signing up to be an official mirror site

GPL note: You may get a list of any source changes that were needed to compile
a particular package, by contacting the maintainer of the specific package in
question. In general, no source code changes are involved in our packages.
