Dear on-ips-dev'ers:

Just a note to let you guys know that Brock and I have been discussing
getting ON to a "clean" state with respect to pkgdepend, so that we can
subsequently enforce pkgdepend-cleanliness in the build.

There are a lot of moving parts-- we need to fix some of the packaging
around zones, fix another ON bug, and also enhance pkgdepend.  I have
opened:

http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=16012

So that we can track issues related to this.  Additionally, I
have filed the bugster bug:

6954116 IB drivers declare invalid elf dependencies, confuse pkgdepend,
cause build noise

This last is evidence that the sooner we get to "clean", the better,
as pkgdepend is catching legitimate issues, but developers are not
seeing those.

Thanks,

        -dp
