Maybe OpenPKG can help you. It is a cross platform packaging solution and all CORE packages are known to work on Tru64 5.1. Have a look http://www.openpkg.org and give it a try. OpenPKG focuses on sources which implies a chicken-egg problem but you can find unofficial binaries at http://www.zfos.org/openpkg.html -- Thomas.Lotterer@xxxxxx, Cable & Wireless
