Hi Laurent,

Long time, no see/hear/read :)

121428 01 < 12 ---   5 SunOS 5.10: Live Upgrade Zones Support Patch
121430 02 < 31 r--   8 SunOS 5.8 5.9 5.10: Live Upgrade Patch

Is that a bug? I don't understand why those two patches are listed with
-l all and not with -l m?

"all" is "installed" + "missing", so the patches must be in the installed set, but not in missing.

This might seem strange - how can revision 121430-02 be installed, but 121430-31 doesn't apply to the system anymore? This could be due to a special workaround rule for these patches in pca, taken from the patches' prepatch scripts: 121430>=16 can only be installed if the SUNWlucfg package is installed, 121428>=08 requires 121430>=16.

So - do you have the SUNWlucfg package installed on the affected system?

You probably *do* have SUNWlur and/or SUNWluu installed, and 121430-02 and 121428-01 are either pre-installed or have been installed in the past. These revisions didn't require SUNWlucfg.

If I'm completely wrong, please send me the three *.out file from:

  uname -a > uname.out
  showrev -p > showrev.out
  pkginfo -x > pkginfo.out

so I can take a closer look.

Martin.
