Folks,I currently use OpenSolaris on a Toshiba M10 laptop. I recently had to rebuild it (bad sectors on a hdd partition slice with rpool) and installed the last release of OpenSolaris 2009.06 from the live CD and then updated straight to the 134 build before continuing configuring, etc. I subsequently attempted adding packages (Sun explorer) which install from a local repository and reported to install successfully but no files appeared to be installed (ref. pkg output and /var/pkg/repo output bellow). r...@ayeish: ~ $ pkg list SUNWexplo NAME (PUBLISHER) VERSION STATE UFOXI SUNWexplo 6.4 installed ----- r...@ayeish: ~ $ pkg info SUNWexplo Name: SUNWexplo Summary: State: Installed Publisher: local Version: 6.4 Build Release: 5.11 Branch: None Packaging Date: 15 May 2010 22:29:21 Size: 0.00 B FMRI: pkg://local/sunwex...@6.4,5.11:20100515T222921Z r...@ayeish: ~ $ pkg contents SUNWexplo PATH r...@ayeish: ~ $ r...@ayeish: ~ $ find /var/pkg/repo /var/pkg/repo /var/pkg/repo/file /var/pkg/repo/cfg_cache /var/pkg/repo/tmp /var/pkg/repo/pkg /var/pkg/repo/pkg/SUNWexplu /var/pkg/repo/pkg/SUNWexplu/6.4%2C5.11%3A20100515T224107Z /var/pkg/repo/pkg/SUNWexplo /var/pkg/repo/pkg/SUNWexplo/6.4%2C5.11%3A20100515T222921Z /var/pkg/repo/catalog /var/pkg/repo/catalog/catalog.attrs /var/pkg/repo/catalog/update.20100515T22Z.C /var/pkg/repo/catalog/catalog.base.C /var/pkg/repo/index /var/pkg/repo/index/main_dict.ascii.v2 /var/pkg/repo/index/fast_add.v1 /var/pkg/repo/index/__st_pkg.fmri /var/pkg/repo/index/fmri_offsets.v1 /var/pkg/repo/index/full_fmri_list /var/pkg/repo/index/__at_set /var/pkg/repo/index/fast_remove.v1 /var/pkg/repo/index/token_byte_offset.v1 /var/pkg/repo/index/manf_list.v1 /var/pkg/repo/trans During the STB install I noticed a SUNWipkg error (bellow) and decided to address it before reattempting the SUNWexplo and SUNWexplu package removal and re-install. error from 'install_stb_opensol.sh' pkg: info: no packages matching the following patterns you specified are installed on the system.

My grasp of many of the new features of OpenSolaris (which are likely to be propagated to Solaris) are still in development and serve as the primary reason I have adopted OpenSolaris (so I can become more familiar with them to promote adoption). If anyone can clarify what is going on here it would be appreciated.
In build 134, there was a giant renaming.. SUNWipkg is now package/pkg... Take a look at the output of pkg list. - Bart -- Bart Smaalders Solaris Kernel Performance bart.smaald...@oracle.com http://blogs.sun.com/barts "You will contribute more with mercurial than with thunderbird." _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
