David,
right now I am on build 108 and I just decided to go for b111. So I ran
the updatemanager (on my for several days every day suspended/resumed
laptop). With that I only see that updatemanager offers me updates, based on
b110. Hmm... So I ran packagemanager, but see the same. So logged out/in -
no change. I restarted the updatemanager/packagemanager - no change.
Now I rebootet the laptop and ran again the updatemanager and yes, now it
shows me updates, based on b111. Has anyone seen this too ? Why do I have to
reboot to tell the updatemanager to really look for news and not look into
his cache. Any comments or is this is bug ?
The updatemanager only refreshes every so often via a cron job for
performance and other reasons.
If you want the absolute latest information about updates, you'll have to
manually run "pfexec pkg refresh" or click the "reload" button in
packagemanger to see them.
It sounds like there's an RFE here for updatemanager to have a
"refresh/reload" button as well.

It looks like I saw the similar issue:
$ uname -a
SunOS aubrey-penryn 5.11 snv_110 i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris
$ pfexec pkg authority
PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS URI
dev (preferred) origin online
http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev/
$ pfexec pkg refresh
$ pfexec pkg image-update
No updates available for this image.
$ pfexec pkg version
fe52359f5636
Did I miss anything?
Very odd. I haven't seen that on my local system to be certain.
You aren't by chance going through a proxy or something like that are you?
Try a "pkg refresh --full".
Cheers,
