MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

package for readlink and realpath on Solaris 10 ?

Hi!

I would like to know which Solaris 10 package includes readlink and realpath.

As far as I've seen from this man page https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23823_01/html/816-5167/readlink-2.html it should be available.

I've /opt/ccs/bin on my system, this seems to come from SUNWsprot or SUNWbtool .

Alternatively I would have to use the openCSW coreutils package to get readlink and realpath, which installs to /opt/csw/gnu .

But for this I would have to adjust PATH, which I don't want to do - if possible.

Thanks.
