Hi all,
I am trying to uninstall all gnome packages from an opensolaris 2009.06
installation and returns me some errors:

After that if I execute "pkg list |grep gnome" I see that all gnome
packages are removed. Can I safely ignore these errors? Can I remove all
contents under /var/pkg/lost+found?
To remove gnome packages I use the following command: "pkg uninstall
-rv ..."
Many thanks.
These aren't errors so much as warnings that are simply telling you that
the package system found files installed in these directories that it
didn't expect to be there. As such, it has preserved them for you in
the /var/pkg/lost+found directory. If you don't care about these files,
feel free to remove /var/pkg/lost+found/* and ignore the warnings.
Cheers,
