Hi everyone.

ai_sparc_image.xml et al:
The package names for the DDU are really the old SUNW-style names rather
than new-style names? That doesn't seem right.
WRT live-var-pkg*:
Ugh on the service name.
Does it really need to be a separate service vs. included in one of the
existing?
Relatedly, the new SMF service appears to have nothing depending on it,
so how are you ensuring that it will be completed (and as Keith noted,
worked correctly) before DDU or anything else tries a pkg operation?
What's the boot time impact with real media (not in a VM, and not now,
but once you've got proper dependencies in place)? Do we not need an
updated iso sort list since we're presumably doing a heck of a lot of
new I/O to the CD that didn't exist previously?
I expected that moving /var/pkg would involve it no longer being a
sparse set of links on the boot archive but instead a single link at the
top into a fully read-only copy on solarismisc.zlib. Why is this
approach better, as it seems to leave us with lots of non-writeable
areas in /var/pkg still (and consumes more space on the archive than the
single link would)? A nit that find/cpio is generally preferred over cp
-r since it preserves sparse files. Also, you should be preserving
modes and modification times, which your cp usage does not.
