I can see how what I said could have been misinterpreted as adding the
single p7zip binary to SUNWslim-utils. I agree that this would be a bad
solution for just the reasons you state.
When I responded originally I meant to say add SUNWp7zip package (not
the p7zip file alone) to SUNWslim-utils thinking the latter was an
incorporation. Hence my last email when I found out SUNWslim-utils
wasn't an incorporation. What I meant is more along the lines of how
Dave responded to my email:
SUNWp7zip should be added to the slim_install cluster rather than as
an additional
package in pkgs.txt.
