Hi all,
after Mark's license wad push I've been trying to get
rebuilt blended-onbld tools installed (using the script
which we've been using successfully for months), but
this is failing with "no updates necessary" :(

So here's what I did (at Brock's suggestion) to get
past this problem:

1. copy the catalog.* files directly from ipkg into
/var/pkg/publisher/on-onbld/catalog
2. enabled a configured but disabled publisher
3. pkg install blended-onbld


If (2) hadn't worked, I was going to add an entirely
new publisher.

I suspect, although I cannot say with 100% certainty, that based on a related case of this issue that happened earlier today, that this was caused by catalog data in web cache not reflecting what's actually in
the on-onbld repository.

And in addition, due to bug 16715, the client API didn't discover this problem and fail the operation as it should have (at a minimum).

The client API will be changed to attempt to get caches to revalidate their content in this scenario in the near future.
