If I do a pkg info on an old package name (e.g SUNWloc) should it return

It should show if you if the package has been renamed, but it should not automatically follow it.

That is what I'm experiencing it is not following it when I do the pkg info (or more precisely the zones test suites configure script). Which is checking for packages installed on the system and then attempting
to install them if not present.

For example a pkg info SUNWloc fails, and then a pkg install of SUNWloc progresses with no updates
needed, which in the current configure script causes a failure.

I have copied Jim on this so that he is aware.
