[Info-vax] OpenSSL 1.1.0 released

[Bill Pedersen]

I believe John Malmberg has discussed here and also on SourceFORGE and the DECUServe site the fact that there cannot be duplicate file names in PCSI installation kits.

The issue, according to John, is that PCSI looks only at the file name, not the directory information.

This has haunted the Open Source on OpenVMS Community for some time.  And we have worked to stay away from such cases.

Bill.

I haven't checked, but the extracted [.I64VMS] isn't the right one, the contents is from the Alpha one.

Here are the three files used for this test:

test-package.com:
----------------------------------------
$	cre/dir [.axpvms]
$	cre/dir [.i64vms]
$	cre [.axpvms]foo.txt
$	deck
Alpha FOO
$	eod
$	cre [.i64vms]foo.txt
$	deck
IA64 FOO
$	eod
$
$	PRODUCT PACKAGE TEST -
		/BASE=VMS -
		/PRODUCER=Levitte -
		/SOURCE=[]test -
		/DESTINATION=[] -
		/MATERIAL=[] -
		/FORMAT=SEQUENTIAL
----------------------------------------

test.pcsi$desc:
----------------------------------------
product Levitte VMS TEST T0.1 Full ;
    if ( ( (<software DEC AXPVMS OPENVMS>)
       	   or (<software HP AXPVMS OPENVMS>) )
     	 or (<software VSI AXPVMS OPENVMS>) ) ;
	information alpha ;
        file [RL-TEST]foo.txt source [.AXPVMS]foo.txt ;
    else ;
	information ia64 ;
        file [RL-TEST]foo.txt source [.I64VMS]foo.txt ;
    end if ;
end product ;
----------------------------------------

test.pcsi$text:
----------------------------------------
=product Levitte VMS TEST T0.1 Full
1 'PRODUCT
=prompt TEST kit T0.1
1 'NOTICE
=prompt Effing pubdom
1 'LICENSE
=prompt Pubdom, I tell ya
1 'PRODUCER
=prompt Richard Levitte
1 alpha
=prompt Installing on Alpha
1 ia64
=prompt Installing on IA64
----------------------------------------

After running test-package.com, I can verify that the source files are correct:

$ type [...]foo.txt
 
USER:[LEVITTE.TEST.PCSI.AXPVMS]FOO.TXT;1
 
Alpha FOO
 
USER:[LEVITTE.TEST.PCSI.I64VMS]FOO.TXT;1
 
IA64 FOO
$ sh def
  USER:[LEVITTE.TEST.PCSI]

Note that when running PRODUCT PACKAGE, I got this warning:

%PCSI-I-MULOBJ, the file [RL-TEST]FOO.TXT is multiply defined; conflict resolution may occur on installation

Cheers,
Richard
