Dear managers,

this is probably a super stupid question, but I haven't been able to
find this out on my own. We want to install GNOME on a Solaris 8
system. We downloaded a file
gnome-2_0-l10n-fcs-solaris8-sparc-de.tar.gz and run the ./install
script. It was reported that the patchaes

        110380-4
        114246-01
        ...

are missing. We now were looking for these patches and learned that a
patch is to be installed like so

        patchadd /var/spool/patch/110380

However, weere do we get this file form. Selecting a patch and clicking
on download gets us a file patchDownload.pl. How is this file supposed
to be used?

Thanks a lot!

Regards,

    Andreas
