Right, that's true, and it's a huge amount of work I think, to prepare media (ISO/USB) for https://www.openindiana.org/download/ The package shell/ksh93 will move into the Live DVD/Minimal Install/Text Install images. Huge amount of testing/work ... I admit that I have a kind of narrow vision on this, e.g. from a squeak / Smalltalk package point of view, I don't mind the change whether squeak depends on SUNWcs or shell/ksh93, I just am OK with whatever "pkgdepend resolve" figures out. However from what I can see (impact of this change on squeak) it's not really required, to change everything at once. I am under the impression that one can ship shell/ksh93, and that *some* packages can have their dependency updated to require shell/ksh93, but that most packages (or other packages) simply don't have to be rebuilt. I may be wrong on this ... but in any case as Gary Mills points out, there is definitely a big impact on "new installations" for example (which I didn't test). Alltogether I'm under the impression that the split ksh93 from core system, is a good change and an improvement I'd appreciate.
