[pca] Missing list in Solaris 11
First time using PCA, I get this message: root@:/tmp# ./pca Downloading xref file to /var/tmp/patchdiag.xref Trying Oracle Trying https://getupdates.oracle.com/ (1/1) Using /var/tmp/patchdiag.xref from Aug/20/12 Host: eight (SunOS 5.11/11.0/sparc/sun4v) List: missing (0/0) I'm not sure where to go from here.

David, Solaris 11 does not use patches but packages updates... Pca will not help you...

Re: [pca] Missing list in Solaris 11
Gael is right. Solaris 11 uses IPS repositories for patching. As much as we love pca -- this is still a very good thing. :) 'pkg update' is your new friend.

Thanks! I'm still new to the world of Solaris, but a coworker turned me on to pca. He wasn't sure it would work, and I guess now we know. Thanks for the tip.
