Been monitoring the progress of this project, one of my primary interests in IPS lies in using it to create minimal OpenSolaris images. Based upon some recent posts which seem to suggest that putbacks have improved the parser (i.e. '-f elfbits=32' command-line option is no longer an error), I thought I'd revisit IPS from some time spent two months ago. I use a list of 50 or so Solaris packages which comprise a minimal image, and attempt to map those old Solaris package names to their IPS counterparts.
With the latest drop, I don't get real far because issuing a 'pkg install SUNWcs', installs an additional 58 packages! It includes things like xorg and gnome libraries, fonts plus much, much more. Is this the intention? Kinda defeats the purpose of a minimalist install.
