Try it without the "*".

Subject: [pca] Understanding --fromfiles

I am having a bit of an issue with  --fromfiles. After installing pca,
I ran uname -a, showrev -p, and pkginfo -x and save output in a
directory called solaris8:

bash-3.00# ls /export/pub/sol8/patches/solaris8
pkginfo.out  showrev.out  uname.out
bash-3.00#

When I ask pca to download the patches, I get the following message:

bash-3.00# ~/pca --fromfiles=/export/pub/sol8/patches/solaris8/* -d missing

ERROR: Can't find pkginfo/showrev/uname output with prefix
/export/pub/sol8/patches/solaris8/*
bash-3.00#

Anything I did wrong?
