So, each time we need to build this map up it'll be specific to a release version. Not ideal, and a faff to do - but, easyish with VMware I guess. I'll publish what I have to u7, and with u8 now out maybe I'll do another one for that. Look for a topic update shortly. Cheers!

Lots of things I was expecting aren't there by default, but when you type svn co http://foo/bar/baz and discover you don't have svn, it helpful chirps up 'to install this try apt-get install subversion' Which is fabulously helpful. Please publish your Solaris filename-to-package-map, it would be immensely helpful. I’ve been using Ubuntu as a desktop OS this week, for the first time.
