32SUNWonld - link-editors development package.
33--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
34
35  The SUNWonld package is an internal development package containing the
36  link-editors and some related tools.  All components live in the OSNET
37  source base, but not all components are delivered as part of the normal
38  OSNET consolidation.  The intent of this package is to provide access
39  to new features/bugfixes before they become generally available.
40
41  General link-editor information can be found:
42
43    http://linkers.central/
44    http://linkers.sfbay/	(also known as linkers.eng)
45
46  Comments and Questions:
47
48    Contact Rod Evans, Ali Bahrami, and/or Seizo Sakurai.
49
50  Warnings:
51
52    The postremove script for this package employs /usr/sbin/static/mv,
53    and thus, besides the common core dependencies, this package also
54    has a dependency on the SUNWsutl package.
55
56  Patches:
57
58    If the patch has been made official, you'll find it in:
59
60	http://sunsolve.east/cgi/show.pl?target=patches/os-patches
61
62    If it hasn't been released, the patch will be in:
63
64	/net/sunsoftpatch/patches/temporary
65
66    Note, any patches logged here refer to the temporary ("T") name, as we
67    never know when they're made official, and although we try to keep all
68    patch information up-to-date the real status of any patch can be
69    determined from:
70
71	http://sunsoftpatch.eng
72
73    If it has been obsoleted, the patch will be in:

78  History:
79
80    Note, starting after Solaris 10, letter codes in parenthesis may
81    be found following the bug synopsis. Their meanings are as follows:
82
83	(D) A documentation change accompanies the implementation change.
84	(P) A packaging change accompanies the implementation change.
85
86    In all cases, see the implementation bug report for details.
87
88    The following bug fixes exist in the OSNET consolidation workspace
89    from which this package is created:
