7.49 How does one package a set of files for HP-UX 9.X?

Use the fpkg program to build a special tar file that update can read.

Be sure to use the mkpdf program to create a PDF file and add this to your
psf file as follows:

    pn  MY-PROD
    pd  My product description
    fv  V.1.0.0
    F
>    <somedir>/PDF /system/MY-PROD/pdf             <
    pr <somedir>/prod-dir
    F *

The pdf file contains a complete file manifest which tech support can use
to verify the files in a product are correctly installed with the command
pdfck.
