Blastwave.org Inc. provides access to a large collection of binary software packages that can be automatically installed to a Solaris computer ( SPARC or x86 based ) over the network. Blastwave has a substantial build server farm for the use of the software developers and maintainers in the Solaris community. All software is built and tested in a standardized build environment using Sun Studio 11 and Sun Studio 12 tools as well as GCC.
There are currently 5213 unique software packages in standard SVR4 package format ready to use and easily installed.
The software is delivered in the form of two “branches” of package files. There is the “unstable” branch and the “stable” branch. As one would expect the packages in the “unstable” branch change quite often. New software is added and updates are released continuously. The “stable” tree also exists and it changes once per quarter year at most. Each of these branches contains essentially the same list of software packages for Solaris™ on either UltraSparc™ or the x86/AMD64 architectures.
Primary software access mirrors are located within United States, Japan, United Kingdom, and Taiwan.
