# ls -lap
total 12
drwxr-xr-x   6 root     root         512 Sep 30 23:05 ./
drwxr-xr-x   3 root     other        512 Sep 30 23:04 ../

drwxr-xr-x   4 43723    6014         512 Sep 15 11:52 SUNWpolkit/
#


then install them as per usual with pkgadd

you ready for a giggle ?

look in that file install_order

see this ?

# cat install_order
SUNWhwdata
SUNWpolkit
SUNWpolkith
SUNWhalh
SUNWhalr
SUNWhal
#

I count six packages ... but we only have four.

I am guessing that the stuff with a "h" at the end is just headers anyways.
