Try:

That will tell the package system that you're trying to update to the
latest version of all packages.

It will then attempt to determine why it cannot do that.

If you have *any* packages installed from opensolaris.org, you'll likely
need to remove them.

I guess these are the culprits:

pfexec pkg update '*@latest'

Yes, those would definitely cause an issue.

Removing those packages should allow you to proceed.

So it does. I also had to remove wine, in response to

pfexec pkg uninstall openoffice
Creating Plan -
pkg uninstall: The requested change to the system attempts to install multiple actions
for dir 'usr/share/applications' with conflicting attributes:

1 package delivers 'dir group=bin mode=0755 owner=root path=usr/share/applications': pkg://contrib.opensolaris.org/wine@1.0.1,5.11-0.101:20081209T223210Z 60 packages deliver 'dir group=other mode=0755 owner=root path=usr/share/applications', including:
