I stand up package repositories when I need something unavailable from the vendor and existing third-party repositories. Anyone who finds themselves needing one of the same things is welcome to use these.

Solaris

Mostly consists of my own builds from the spec-files-extra repository. Some packages are built slightly differently, as the upstream repository targets all SunOS platforms, including Illumos-based distributions, and it more readily bypasses vendor packages in favor of its own to satisfy dependencies. I try to contribute version updates absent other changes, and new SPECs where appropriate, to the upstream repository.
