installing OSRcompat-uw713 on OSR506

[Stuart J. Browne]

I'm trying to install OSRcompat-uw713.set on an OpenServer 5.0.6 system
(rs506a.Unix506.1.0a usb.Unix506.1.0a OSS642a.506.SCO.Unix.RTS), and am
just beating my head against a wall.

The general lack of documentation with regards to this package is quite
entertaining! I've not been able to find any.

As 'file OSRcompat-uw713.set' returns "pkg file", I've tried various
'pkgadd' commands, only to get the following message:


pkgadd -d OSRcompat-uw713.set
UX:pkgadd: ERROR: attempt to process package from <OSRcompat-uw713.set>
failed
- open of <OSRcompat-uw713.set> failed, errno=2

It was downloaded today from SCO's web page:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 8230912 Aug 1 14:51 OSRcompat-uw713.set


What am I missing to install this? I eventually want to install one of the
Java 1.3 packages (1.3.1_06 preferably, but that asks for 'OSRcompat 8.0.1
or higher' which I've not seen hide nor hair of!).

The 5.0.7 Optional Services CD, even though it's stated that these packages
are on there, are not.

What can I try next?
