Thanks to: Todd Urie Serge Borkov ANSWER: Problem solved by including "cat > $1 <<EOM" within the 'checkinstall' script. This is what we were missing and once it was added, our problem was solved. (ORIGINAL PROBLEM) We've poured over the "Applications Packaging Developers Guide" and followed the instructions to the letter, but we're still having a problem. In changing the "CLASSES" variable to a particular class name within the "checkinstall" script, we have found that the files for that class do not get installed. Furthermore, in the "preinstall" script and "postinstall" script, the "CLASSES" variable does not show the value it was set to in the "checkinstall" script. Perhaps one of you has a working example that you can share???? We have tried this on both 2.6 and 8 and so far haven't found any answers in the Sun docs web site nor does there appear to be a bug report, patch, etc for pkgadd or pkgmk that may be a cause for the problem we're having.
