All,
I'd like to request a review of my changes to fix CR 7014370.

As we don't now and never have used the "install-extra" repo concept,
I've elected to remove those files and lines dealing with it.

Hi Keith,
The files usr/src/pkg/transforms/synthetic and usr/src/pkg/README.pkg
have something related to the install_extra package and repo, do those
files
need to be updated as well?
Hi Karen,
I'll file a separate bug to update those files, though in both cases
it's harmless references.
While completely removing the install-extra package and repo works for
solving the problem for now, do you know
why we suddenly have this problem of delivering the install-extra
package into install-nightly?
The install-extra package and install-extra repo have existed since we
convert the gate to building
IPS packages. Why was it not a problem before? I understand that you
want to fix the problem quickly
now so RE can start the build, but I think it will be worthwhile to
figure out exactly why things
are happening for the long run...
There was an issue of some kind with my push for CR 7011710
(usr/src/pkg/Makefile should be updated to be louder on failures). As
you note, I wanted to turn this CR around quickly so RE could get the
build started; faced with the choice of digging through Makefile syntax
to figure out how to make things work with install-extra, or removing
install-extra, given our lack of use of install-extra, I went with the
removal. I agree that it would be nice to understand the exact reasons
why the changes in CR 7011710 led to this condition, and will also file
a CR to re-evaluate further.

Thanks,
