Maybe one should wait a few days. Update 9972 was previously released and
pulled on June 5. It also required 9925 at that time, but it wasn't in the
download directory a few days ago where 9972 was. The 9972 released today
is the same one released on June 5 as that is the date in the ftp
directory. 9925 is now there and dated July 19. I would like to see some
explanation from Sun/Cobalt before installing this one.
