    R:bash
    R:lsof[/code]

    The [b]I:[/b] prefix is for installp-format (LPP) packages, [b]R:[/b] is for RPM packages.

    I need to copy bos.adt* package to my_lpp_source_dir/installp/ppc/ ,and copy bash* packages to my_lpp_source_dir/RPMS/ppc/ ,and re-define lpp_soure resource,is it right?
    I am not sure where can the NIM client get this bundle files.

    Right, but no need to re-define the lpp_source, just re-generate the .toc file in installp/ppc, or do the following:
    codenim -o check [i]lpp_source_name[/i][/code]If you just copy new RPM packages to RPMS/ppc, you don't need to do anything at all, they will be found automatically.

    ok ,I got it. but if I want to install a rpm package use rpm's options "--nodeps",Can I add this options? or create a script to do this?
