[pca] 18117543 patch 144872-02 is missing a hard requirement

last night at 17 secs after midnight this 144872-03 was slid out the door. Seems odd to me that Solaris 10 patches are released on specific schedule except for odd little creatures like this. Anyways, makes me wonder what bugid 18117543 is. -- README.144872-03 Keywo

[pca] question to folks running Oracle Solaris Studio 12 or 12.3

Re: [pca] Using PCA for obtaining other-than S10 patches

PCA can handle those classic 123456-78-style patch IDs only. Even if I still had a MOS-account I wouldn't be keen on messing with yet another style of patch downloads nowadays. I have tested this and it works great for Solaris 8 and 9. Yes you can just feed the 123456-00 style to pca and i
