+The following is a new package build script for Solaris. This is being
+introduced into OpenSSH 3.0 and above in hopes of simplifying the build
+process.
+
+The build process is called a 'dummy install'.. Which means the software does
+a "make install-nokeys DESTDIR=[fakeroot]". This way all manpages should
+be handled correctly and key are defered until the first time the sshd
+is started.
+
+Directions:
+
+1. make -F Makefile.in distprep (Only if you are getting from the CVS tree)
+2. ./configure --with-pam [..any other options you want..]
+3. cd contrib/solaris; ./buildpkg.sh
+
+If all goes well you should have a solaris package ready to be installed.
+
+If you have any problems with this script please post them to
+openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org and I will try to assist you as best as I can.

+TODO:
+- Expand to cover all sysvr4 family of OSes
+- Clean things up a bit more.
+- Detect if sshd is running and refuse to start.
+- SHOULD check for existing sshd_config nor ssh_config (does not currently).
+ [Post install script? Ugh.. Nasty]
