Thanks for your suggestions to try building from spec-files. I spent the last 
few hours trying to build, but keep running into errors that I don't know how 
to solve (Solaris newbie). For example, when 
running[i]/opt/pkgbuild/bin/pkgtool build --download SFEtransmission.spec 
--autodeps[/i] I get a dependency check failure (for SUNWgtk2, SUNWdbus-glib, 
SUNWgtk2-devel, and SUNWdbus-glib-devel). I looked for these on OpenSolaris 
IPS, and couldn't find them (I tried installing gtk2 from Blastwave, but it 
didn't clear the dependency).

I know for a Solaris dev this is all a piece of cake, but for someone new to 
Solaris or even *nix in general, this set up is a lot more complicated then 
just being able to set a repository, run a pkg manager, and have everything 
(including dependencies) taken care of.
