 From responses by Danek and David, it looks like we'd like it to be 
something else
(0.1). Which category/sub-category should I file a bug against in 
Bugster? In the

Identified, yes. See: http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=5268
Resolved, no. Individual bugs will be filed under opensolaris/packaging as
needed.

Okay. I'll point you at my local repository, when I've made the changes
that David requested in an earlier email.
