Hi
I am on build 134, and today noticed that the update icon was
recommending an update that consisted of two packages, sunstudio and
studioexpress, unsure why these were being recommended alone, but my
main question is why when I clicked update did I end up with a new boot
environment, instead of updating my live boot environment ( or at least
giving me the option ).

Currently, the updatemanager is completely image-update based, so it always creates a new boot environment.

There are certain pieces of the client API that could provide it with information to make a more intelligent decision that are not in place yet.

I suspect that this is something that will be resolved in the next few months.

For now, if you want to perform this update locally, use the CLI or install the new packages manually using the packagemanager.

Cheers,
