Yes, that makes sense. I was also slightly curious what would happen since sunstudio doesn't appear to be in the new repos; maybe that's going to be a problem too. > Yes, the messaging could be better here, but it's very difficult to divine > the intent of the user here. > > You'll need to remove amp-dev, all of the *php* and postgre packages. > > I believe that should allow you to upgrade (assuming there isn't some other > package in the way). Nod. The image-update is now going a lot slower, so hopefully it is thinking about doing something useful this time :-) It would be helpful if pkg could write out the list of pkgs that are stopping the image-update from "moving forward". Producing a very similar boot env is not helpful, as you get fooled into a useless reboot. But then, how often is pkg going to encounter this sort of incompatibility?
