Hi,

Which command I should use to remove a package (including all versions of that package) from my local IPS repo ... might be I overlooked, seems not in any documents to mention this.

Thanks,

Strictly speaking, this isn't supported.

Practically:

take a zfs snapshot to protect against ham-handed fingers...

# svcadm disable pkg/server
# cd depo_root (/var/pkg/repo by default)
# rm -r catalog index
# rm -r pkg/NAME_TO_BE_DELETED
# svcadm enable pkg/server

the depo search will be offline while it rebuilds
the search index.

Remaining packages that have dependencies on the deleted
packages are now un-installable.
