It's not a bug. This is not for OS2008.XX. These are System V packages, and the dependencies are for Solaris 10/x64. There are several packages which will likely hurt an OS2008.xx system. > But it still fail to install some of the packages, like > FOSSqt and others.

I guess the repeated "This is only for Solaris 10/x64" is just not loud enough. > Another thing is if you want to mix these kind of packages with pkg ones > on your machine. Someone else on the team is working on a true KDE4 on OS2008.xx with IPS packages. Monitor kde-discuss at opensolaris.org or http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KDE_on_Solaris. An announcement for 32-bit x86 packages (P3/VIA C3/Athlon) will be done shortly. Ben
