I've found it's always safest to say "Minor", unless you do understand the question. Solaris 9, Solaris 10, Solaris-whatever-comes-next -- those are all "minor" releases. And all questions of "release binding" are with respect to Solaris releases. I have no idea how "major" could ever be used.

A closer inspection of pkg.opensolaris.org shows that package is SUNWj6dev, not j6dev. Dean
