Given that, here's the names I'd suggest changing from the list in the
bug report for the X packages to match the upstream tarballs - though
we've still got a lot of packages that merge & split upstream, which
will be fixed in a later refactoring.
SUNWpciaccess system/library/libpciaccess
SUNWfont-daewoo-misc system/font/daewoo-misc
SUNWfont-misc-ethiopic system/font/misc-ethiopic
SUNWfont-isas-misc system/font/isas-misc
SUNWfont-jis-misc system/font/jis-misc
SUNWfont-misc-meltho system/font/misc-meltho
SUNWfontconfig system/library/fontconfig
SUNWfontconfig-docs system/library/fontconfig/documentation
SUNWfreetype2 system/library/freetype
SUNWxwxft system/library/x11/libXft2
SUNWxwfs system/x11/xfs
Also, should service packages mirror the SMF hierarchy?
i.e. should SUNWxwplr become service/application/x11 ?
