sure, but only to some extend. it's both ips. unless of course illumos did a 
massive rewrite there and 
just kept the name for historical reasons. and the options and the messages and 
the package format and 
... you get the idea :-)

i know what illumos is and where it came from and i didn't imply it had to be 
the same either. my 
question was about the size of the pkg folder and that i think it's too big. 
which then turned out to be 
right considering the solution with flush-content-cache-on-success and its 
result. the latter should be 
True by default if i may suggest that.
as for the size, i think even the original solaris pkg folder is too big for 
that number of packages. 
looking at rhel for example i see 65mb for 485 packages. of course that depends 
on what packages they 
are but it does give a rough estimate.
