Looks very similar to bug 1331 to me: 1331 installing a known package when authority is not available causes traceback http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=1331 Except you're not getting a traceback. Either way, this is probably behaviour we need to define. -- Shawn Walker _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
