That is a very minor concern. You are over reacting and should take
note of the fact that Solaris was closed for a very very very long
time. You should be happy as a lark that the source is open and it
even has comments in it that say things like "this is a private
interface and golly gee whiz here is what it does in case you want to
know".
Like, gee, go look at the sources to the the old old old ( yes I mean
three of those and I don't stutter ) SVR4 pkgadd command and you will
see things like :
/*
* Not a public interface: suppress copyright notice being
* output during installation.
*/
case 'S':
suppressCopyright++;
break;
another nifty option is -Odebug
feel free to try that wiht pkgadd next time you go to install a package.
