I was trying to image-update to b129, and I wasn't going to be put off
by the request to upgrade the pkg command:
$ pfexec pkg image-update -nv
Creating Plan - WARNING: pkg(5) appears to be out of date, and should be
updated before
running image-update. Please update pkg(5) using 'pfexec pkg install
SUNWipkg' and then retry the image-update.
However, I didn't expect the following command to begin downloading
everything:
$ pfexec pkg install -v SUNWipkg

Is this expected?
Whilst in my case this update is a prelude to an image-update anyway, I
did not expect to have to wait for all 300Mb to download simply to
update the pkg command.

Brian
