Actually there is a pretty large community that supports "pkg-get" - a
package management system for opensource software on Solaris.

They have tons of software in the repositories, and the pkg-get tool is
based on apt-get from the ground up.

I'm a long-time debian and solaris user, and pkg-get makes me feel right at
home.
