What do the links have to do with your question? | [reply] |
Nothing, sorry about that. I had the links as part of my signature. I can remove them if this is confusing.

No No. Now that the line is there it makes sense. I was jsut thinking what the hell?

HP-UX .depot files are in fact glorified tar files. You could use Archive::Tar files if you really wanted to look inside them. I've got to ask though: why would you want to do this? -- those files are almost always useful only to HP-UX systems.

Kids, you tried your hardest, and you failed miserably. The lesson is: Never try.

I need to look inside them becouse I am tasked with providing a list of all possible files our install may lay down.

In that case, if you've got access to an HP-UX box,
swlist -l file -s $PWD/filename.depot
is The Right Way.
