Hi all,

Here's a fourth webrev for the package renaming for the unbundleds
packages for OpenSolaris 2009.06:

   http://cr.opensolaris.org/~richb/pkg-6941-v4

(Previous posting on this at:
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/pkg-discuss/2009-March/012071.html)

For 2009.06, we will not be renaming all the unbundled packages.
There is the concern that doing something like:

 $ pfexec pkg install netbeans

would now return indicating that you have two choices (the old name
"netbeans" and the new name "developer/netbeans") and you will
then have to give a more refined fmri to describe the package
you really want, which is not a very good user experience.

It therefore looks like we can't do a complete renaming until we
have the ability to properly obsolete or rename a package.

What we can do is rename the unbundled packages that don't have
this naming restriction.

Those are:

dtrace-gui-plugin          ==> developer/netbeans/plugin/nb-dtrace
glassfishv2                ==> web/glassfish-2
mq41                       ==> service/network/message-queue
webstackui                 ==> web/webstack-ui

That's what this webrev covers.

There is a local (internal) repositories with these packages in at:

Thanks.
