FWIW, I manged to work around what appears to be the same issue by manually upgrading from snv_127 to snv_128a before upgrading to snv_130. I did have to fix the package publiser issue first, and I had no packages installed from contrib nor any other publishers - so YMMV.
1) boot into snv_127 2) manually upgrade to snv_128a: pfexec beadm create snv_128a pfexec beadm mount snv_128a /mnt pfexec pkg -R /mnt install entire at 0.5.11,5.11-0.128 pfexec bootadm update-archive -R /mnt pfexec beadm activate snv_128a 3) reboot into snv_128a 4) run pkg manager, which detects snv_130 and (seemingly) gets the package dependencies, and updates/additions/removals correct. I should add it is still downloading the snv_130 pkgs, but once this far there's hopefully not too many extra surprises. Hope this helps :) T PS: If you have an Nvidia graphics card - have a good look at the release notes for snv_130 -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
