Pkgman is used to maintain the desired software package state on all of your solaris hosts. Add the package names to the configuration file and indicate what hosts the package applies to and whether it should be installed or removed. Run pkgman on a host and point it to the configuration file and pkgman will determine which package records apply to the executing host. For further information please consult the http://pkgman.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/README file which currently contains all of the documentation. To download pkgman you can grab the gzipped tarball marked "latest stable version" from the download list http://code.google.com/p/pkgman/downloads/list. Currently the name for the gzipped tarball ball is pkgman-.tar.gz. When you gunzip/untar the archive you will end up with a directory called pkgman-. The README file included in the tar archive has a section titled "INSTALLATION" which covers the details of installing pkgman. It basically says to execute the command "ruby setup.rb" while you are in the directory created after you unpacked the tarball.
If you want to check out the source code using subversion you can run the following command.
svn checkout http://pkgman.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pkgman I'm using a stable trunk method for development. All changes are made to a branch, tested and then merged back into the trunk.
