Indiana announce a developer preview edition, I get it and install on my pc.

The whole experience is okay, expect that there are some bugs and broken utilities. Be patient Man,  this is only a preview version.

I want to use Imagine to upgrade some of my packages, Migi told me the bundled the pkg is broken, I need use the trunk version. But no make and hg is bundeled.

I only have SUNWipkg which I build by my previous blog entry - Setup a IPS repository . Unfortunately, pkgadd is broken for the exsiting bug pkgadd broken in Preview 1

What can I do? A simple script would help.

#cd SUNWipkg
#export basedir=`cat pkginfo |grep ^BASEDIR|awk -F\= '{print $2}'`
#for i in `cat pkgmap |grep  ^"1 f"|awk '{print $4}'`; do cp $basedir/$i $basedir/$i.old; cp ./reloc/$i $basedir/$i; done

Another case is vino, the bundled vino does not allow use control remotely. 

 #cd SNWgnome-remote-desktop
#export basedir=`cat pkginfo |grep ^BASEDIR|awk -F\= '{print $2}'`
#for i in `cat pkgmap |grep  ^"1 f"|awk '{print $4}'`; do cp $basedir/$i $basedir/$i.old; cp ./reloc/$i $basedir/$i; done

 That's what I did, I'm going to setup a vermillion IPS repostory, and use Image to upgrade my GNOME.
