Current packaging systems do not meet the unique needs of OpenSolaris. The lack of package building method is intentional at the moment. However, there are projects working towards providing one such as pkgbuild (http://pkgbuild.sf.net/). pkg does have dependency resolution, though there are currently restrictions on what it supports. Remember that pkg is still a work in progress. I would encourage you to provide any constructive feedback to the pkg-discuss mailing list.
