The hard part will be testing this. I'm not sure I have the HW in-house to do it. I may need illumos community help. Since we have a test environment where we can reproduce this and a high interest in seeing it fixed, we can test new kernel packages and so on. (If given specific

2015-05-05 Thread Dan McDonald
I've just updated the openssl, zlib, trousers, and libxml2 packages to include lint libraries. This is a non-reboot update, but you may need to restart services requiring any of the aforementioned packages that are non-system-related. I'm making this change because later today, I'll be
