Help please!

I downloaded gcc from sunfreeware.

I am trying to install gcc. It does not work. Why?


Here is what I did:

cd /var/tmp
gzip -d gcc-2.95.3-sol8-sparc-local.gz
pkgadd gcc-2.95.3-sol8-sparc-local

I also tried pkgadd -d /var/tmp gcc-2.95.3-sol8-sparc-local




Either way I get:

pkgadd: ERROR: unable to open admin file <default>


Well?


Thanks,
