The placement of the -v parameter to pkg should not be position
depenedant. So long as it does not get inthe way of a parameter that
requires some data/tag/token after it like -R thus :
-bash-3.2# beadm create opensolaris-2
-bash-3.2# beadm mount opensolaris-2 /mnt
-bash-3.2# pkg version
1bd9f1e17690
-bash-3.2# pkg refresh
-bash-3.2#
-bash-3.2# beadm list -a

-bash-3.2#
-bash-3.2# pkg -v -R /mnt image-update
pkg: illegal global option -- v
Usage:
pkg [options] command [cmd_options] [operands]
Basic subcommands:
pkg install [-nvq] package...
pkg uninstall [-nrvq] package...
pkg list [-aHsuv] [package...]
pkg image-update [-nvq]
pkg refresh [--full]
pkg version
pkg help
Advanced subcommands:
pkg info [-lr] [--license] [pkg_fmri_pattern ...]
pkg search [-lr] [-s server] token
pkg verify [-fHqv] [pkg_fmri_pattern ...]
pkg contents [-Hmr] [-o attribute ...] [-s sort_key] [-t
action_type ... ]
pkg_fmri_pattern [...]
pkg image-create [-FPUz] [--full|--partial|--user] [--zone]
[-k ssl_key] [-c ssl_cert] -a <prefix>=<url> dir
pkg set-authority [-P] [-k ssl_key] [-c ssl_cert]
[-O origin_url] authority
pkg unset-authority authority ...
pkg authority [-HP] [authname]
Options:
-R dir
Environment:
PKG_IMAGE
-bash-3.2# pkg -R /mnt image-update -v
this is seen as acceptable .. but "pkg -v -R /mnt image-update" is not.
The -v option is valid for image-update and thus it is acceptable as
an option. The order of placement on the command line should not
matter.
