Package Installation

Hello experts. I've created my own package file using the procedure outlined in www.solarisfreeware.com. for those of un-aware of this procedure, it basically utilizes pkgproto, pkgtrans etc..... However, im now attempting to install this particular package un-interactively via Jumpstart but with no luck. I've tried a whole host of methods including response files created with pkgask, used nocheck for all in an admin file. The man page for pkgadd states that: -

Certain unbundled and third-party packages are no longer entirely compatible with the latest version of pkgadd.

These packages require user interaction throughout the installation and not just at the very beginning.

But, I refuse to believe that there is not some kind of work around or that someone has experienced the same issue.

You have to give details of the failure, or we can't begin to guess.... What is the first thing that it requires?

I'm assuming you've got a proper admin file? And that packages other than yours are installing without issue?
