Hi Martin , 
       I am using ./pca -H -f |awk '{print $1}' 
to create a patch_order list . I then use this file as an  order to
install patches using a script . 
However I getting allot of patches failed because of dependencies .

Ray ..

Look closer, e.g at:

478 SunOS 5.9: IIIM and X Input & Output ...

and

14 RS- 142 SunOS 5.9: in.dhcpd & libresolv patch

They aren't in numerical order. While pca uses the order of patches in
the patchdiag.xref by default (which is numerical), it *does* resolve
the dependencies correctly. When in doubt, use pca's --debug option or
simply try to install the patches.
