Folks, Is there a known problem with the package manager in OS.2008.11 whereby the packages within a repo are not listed within the GUI ?
For example - I have the following configuration (apologies to non-sun folks): r...@rpe-tosh-r600:~# pkg authority AUTHORITY URL extra https://pkg.sun.com/opensolaris/extra/ sunfreeware http://pkg.sunfreeware.com:9000/ righthook.east.sun.com http://righthook.east.sun.com:10000/ dev http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev/ sru (preferred) http://mum.sfbay:10702/ release http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/ the 'sru' repo contains packages for opensolaris (ie SUNWckr and all the others). When I look at the packages within the 'Package Manager' I have the following: Setting the repository selection to: o 'dev' I see all the packages in the package panel (ie I see SUNWckr) o 'release' I see a selection of the packages (ie I do not see SUNWckr) o 'sru' I only see the incorporation that is in that repo (ie I do not see SUNWckr). Looking at the package details (SUNWckr) within the GUI when the 'dev' repo is selected I see the details of the SUNWckr package that resides in the 'sru' repo. Removing the 'dev' authority and restarting the GUI now starts to show some of the packages within the 'sru' repo. Is this a problem with the package manager and having different repos which hold different versions of the same package ?
