I want to use pkg-installer to deploy our compmany s/w on a QNX box. I saw
an article on how to set up a repository. However, I haven’t come across
any information on how to package the various executables, shared libraries,
config files, etc. I also need to set up local accounts, add services in
rc.local, etc.
Would appreciate any pointers.
Thanks,
Hanif.
Hello Hanif,
Take a look at the following articles found at
http://qdn.qnx.com/articles/aug2701/index.html
http://qdn.qnx.com/articles/sep1401/index.html
Also you could take a look at the documentation found at
http://qdn.qnx.com/support/docs/neutrino_2.11_en/utilities/p/packager.html
I hope this helps,

The links do indeed help. However, it seems that packager might not be the
right tool.
I need to package components (executables, libraries, config files, OEM
stuff…) that do not necessarily reside under one directory structure (like
a basedir). Also, as part of the installation, i need to create some
accounts, change file permisions, etc. My initial understanding is that
package will not do that. I would have to provide pre/post-install scripts.
If that is the case then it might be easier to develop a set of scripts that
gather the material, pack it (tar), etc…
