I have two authorities configured hosting my packages. One holds debug

Note that coips-25991 is the preferred authority. My package,
ha-cluster-full is available from each authority, in different versions.
Note the 33284 in the coips-80 version.
bosco:work-109-1:~# pkg list -v ha-cluster-full

As expected, the version from coips-25991 has been installed (lacks 33284.)
Now check a package which was installed via dependency:
bosco:work-109-1:~# pkg list -v SUNWscz

It was installed from coips-80. Note the 33284. But it *is* available on
coips-25991, the preferred authority:
bosco:work-109-1:~# pkg list -afv SUNWscz

Why was the depended-upon package brought in from coips-80 rather than
coips-25991?
So.... you have two packages, which differ in version:
pkg://coips-80/[email protected],5.11-0.108.33284:20090224T050443Z
pkg:/[email protected],5.11-0.108:20090307T003526Z
Your dependency likely specifies:
pkg://coips-80/[email protected],5.11-0.108
It will prefer the newer package.
If you want to play games w/ different content in a pkg for the same
build, use variant types and merge the pkgs rather than trying to
finagle this w/ version games.
