Hi -

I'm going through the instructions on 
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/resources/relnotes/200805/image-update/
and I'm running into some issues. I'm doing an image update from 2008.04 
(Not the BTS release) to 2008.11.


According to step 2,  I run:
$pfexec pkg install [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It doesn't appear to be updating the packages associated with entire. My 
understanding is that this command will update a package to the latest 
version within $BUILD.
What instigated this investigation was that the beadm command, 
specifically activating and booting into different boot environments, 
wasn't working correctly. My initial installation has 
SUNWinstall-libs0.5.11,5.11-0.86:20080422T214931Z. After I run the above 
command, shouldn't it be updated to the 200808 version of the package? 
In other words SUNWinstall-libs0.5.11,5.11-0.86:20080820T050702Z?

If that is the case that it should be updated to 200808, then the 
command isn't working correctly because I see the 200804 version of the 
package on the system after I run the command.

If that isn't the case, then from what Evan told me, this page should be 
updated to include in step 2, similar to SUNWipkg:

$pfexec pkg install [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Beginning with the 200808 version of SUNWinstall-libs, there is a fix 
for steps 7, 8, and 9, so they aren't necessary if the package is 
updated properly.
 

thx,
