The way to find out the binaries/libraries and everything else that you would need to know try:
# pkgchk -l SUNWapchr ; Detailed info
But I personally prefer:
# pkgchk -l SUNWapchr | grep -i pathname ; List of specific files
Good post overall otherwise I wouldnt have been inclined to expand on it!
Keep up the good work!
