Local capability (i.e. http://localhost) is already there today, the issue is just getting the repository data. If you're talking about having a local copy of the 2009.06 repository, that should be available soon (a few weeks at most?). Testing has already started for it. Once the 2009.06 repository snapshot is released, you should be able to run your own depot server and either use it as a content mirror: pfexec pkg set-publisher -m http://localhost:<port> opensolaris.org ...or as a "full mirror" (both metadata and package content): pfexec pkg set-publisher -O http://localhost:<port> opensolaris.org If you're talking about the client performing operations directly from disk, that's several months away (end of year at earliest most likely).
