It's exactly the same. Try to forget, if you can, the fact that
image-update used to always create a new boot environment, and install
never did. Now, both will do so if necessary, and only if necessary. That
necessity is determined by whether any actions tagged with reboot-needed
are being updated and the operation is being done on the live root.

Thanks for explaining the new behavior of pkg image-update.
Now with regards to 17045
<https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=17045>what should be
desired behavior of pkg command. Does it require correcting the error
message or something else need to be done ?

Thus, if image-update would only bring you a new version of the compilers
and openoffice, it won't bother with a new BE, but if you say "pkg install
ent...@new-build", then you'll get a new boot environment. You kinda have
to know in advance whether a new boot environment will be created to know
whether the --be-name option will be useful.
