How much data can be put in a syslog message? I was thinking about something like this: "running pkgutil; if this invocation runs, you can repeat it as follows: /opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -y -i pkg1 pkg2 pkg3 ..." This way you can go to syslog, and run pkgutil again to reproduce the problem. Or maybe an own pkgutil log in with the same information. It could be a long line with lots of packages, but it's 4k packages max, so still manageable. It wouldn't crash your text editor. Maciej
