Yes.  You'll need to do this:

     pkg set-publisher --non-sticky opensolaris.org
     pkg set-publisher --search-before=opensolaris.org \
         -p file://$(hg root)/packages/$(uname -p)/repo
     pkg install pkg://pkg5-nightly/\*
... and before that last command will work, you'll need to run

       pkg uninstall entire

to prevent the pkg(5) consolidation from itself being constrained.  This
should be familiar to folks who build ON and update to those bits.

Isn't this step slightly dangerous for a "production" machine? The constraint is there to prevent system package inconsistencies. Can "entire" be reinstalled after the pkg(5) tools are installed, or should we just try to manage the risk?
