Well.... Then, at least hypothetically, couldn't pkg do a mini-update rather than a full update, given that: * an update was just done moments prior, and thus the image presumably correctly reflects what packages are available * the only thing which has changed since that update is the installation of a finite set of known packages * the publisher in question is being re-disabled * the user cannot interact with that publisher until it becomes re-enabled (right?), at which point a full update will occur Anyhoo.... :-) Regardless of the above, this new functionality is cool. As it is. Thanks again John. --joanie _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list pkg-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
