Yah, the packager has to do two things -- first, make a file called 'depend' which \
has the contents like this:

P SMCgcc gcc
  (sparc) 2.95.2

(This is an example I just threw together -- you'd most likely go about it \
differently to just get the libgcc shared package maybe?  Solaris packaging really \
falls down right here....)  Then, inside your 'prototype' file you add a line at the \
top to include that depend file:

i depend

so when you actually build the package, it will generically place those dependancies \
inside your packaged version, and warn you if you install curl without libgcc on the \
system already.  Or something like that -- I've only built maybe 20 Solaris packages, \
so I'm still a n00bie on it....
