Contents
--------

  /usr/lib/libp/libthread.so.1
  /usr/lib/libp/libthreadT.so.1
  /usr/lib/libthread.so.1
  /usr/lib/libthreadT.so.1


Installation Instructions
-------------------------

Either use patchck to install this package or use the following procedure:

  1. Download the libthread.8.0.2d.image file to the /tmp directory on your
     machine.

  2. As root, add the package to your system using these commands:

     $ su -
     Password: <type your root password>
     # pkgadd -d /tmp/libthread.8.0.2d.image all

     Alternatively, this package may be installed in quiet mode, that is,
     without displaying the release notes and asking for confirmation.
     To do this, use these commands:

     $ su -
     Password: <type your root password>
     # pkgadd -qd /tmp/libthread.8.0.2d.image all

  3. If you are installing multiple packages, you do not need to reboot the
     system immediately after installing this libthread package.  Any
     currently running application using the previous threads library will
     continue to do so until the application terminates or the system is
     rebooted.  When done installing packages, rebooting is recommended.
     Rebooting is necessary after installing ptf9151.  (See the Software Notes
     and Recommendations section below.)


Software Notes and Recommendations
----------------------------------

  1.  libthread, version 8.0.2d, should only be installed on:

      UnixWare 7 Definitive 2018 (D2M1)

  2.  The libthread package, once installed, cannot be back revved to an
      earlier version.

  3.  To use new capabilities provided with this version of libthread, you
      must install updated:
         libc package version 8.0.2j or later
         ptf9151 package version a or later

      These three companion packages (libc, libthread, and ptf9151) must each
      be installed with compatible versions of the other two.

      Of the three, the libc package should be installed first, then this
      libthread package, and then ptf9151.  Reboot your system immediately
      after all three packages are installed.
