What about S11 express SRUs? Let's say I need SRU5. I'll install Nevada 151a and then what? pkg update '[email protected],5.11-0.151.0.1.1' ... pkg update '[email protected],5.11-0.151.0.1.2' ... pkg update '[email protected],5.11-0.151.0.1.3' ... pkg update '[email protected],5.11-0.151.0.1.4' ... pkg update '[email protected],5.11-0.151.0.1.5' Because if I run directly update to *.1.5, I am not guaranteed to have lastest binaries from SRU0-4. Moreover 'entire' does not list every package, so I should rather run pkg update '*@0.5.11,5.11-0.151.0.1.1' ... ? -- Vlad _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
