Objectives

In this chapter, we start by looking at what a package is and how to see what packages are installed on our Solaris servers. We then look at how to add, remove, and manipulate packages before moving on to the more advanced topics of the internal format of a package and how we can create packages of our own (including why we might want to do this).
