Looks good. The only things I found were:

* .../src/gui/data/opensolaris.org has removed the entry for

 3637      -[SUNWrmod]
 3638      -category = Core
 3639      -

but there is a package (for i386) for SUNWrmod in .../129/common/SUNWrmod

 There is also no entry for SUNWsdcard, but there is an (i386 only)
 package definition in .../128/common/SUNWsdcard

 From a quick look, this might be a bug in gen_os_files.py not handling
the $(i386_ONLY) and $(SPARC_ONLY) tags correctly. I'll investigate further.

The problem here is that the SUNWrmod and SUNWsdcard packages should
be present when viewed with package manager on an i386 system, but not
when viewed on SPARC. Therefore, if we persist in using the "opensolaris.org" static file approach, then there should really be two versions of this file; one
for each architecture.

GUI folks; are you likely to be fixing this problem for 2010.03 by generating this data dynamically from the packages in the repository (bug #8189)? If so,
then that would be by far the better solution.
