Gavin, Because I'll forget by tonight, but when I tried to set this up build 125 I was using trying to go to build 127 I kept getting these errors
Creating Plan / pkg: 'SUNWipkg' matches multiple packages pkg://opensolarisdev/SUNWipkg pkg://opensolaris.org/SUNWipkg I did get a couple of suggestions to fix, about setting and unsettling publishers but they did not work. I was using script from here http://aszeszo.blogspot.com/2009/07/ips-repository-mirror-script_27.html to mirror the repo on my local machine, that may be the issue not sure. I haven't gone back to the issue as with the near release of the next full repo image I decided to wait. But it is something I'd like to be able to do the next wave of development releases If you can put any light on the situation that may help that would be great. thanks alan On 16 February 2010 13:44, Gavin Maltby <gavin.maltby at gmail.com> wrote: > On 15 February 2010 22:07, Nathan Kroenert > <nathan.kroenert at optusnet.com.au> wrote: > > >> Thanks also to Gavin for making repo images available.
