Hi IPS team,
I am facing issue with removing one IPS package from my system. Because of some
entries, it is not allowing me to re-install the package also.
#pkg info Myspt
pkg: [no errors accumulated]
#pkg uninstall -v Myspt

How to come out of the above issue?
If you look at the pkg history, you should get an idea of what
the cause of the problem is.
As an example:
$ pkg history -n 3
START OPERATION CLIENT OUTCOME
2012-01-31T22:04:15 rebuild-image-catalogs pkg Succeeded
2012-01-31T22:04:41 install pkg Failed
2012-01-31T22:13:32 install pkg Canceled
$ pkg history -l -t 2012-01-31T22:04:41

Reason: All acceptable versions of 'require' dependency on
pkg:/runtime/[email protected],5.11-0.151.1 are obsolete
The above output gives me sufficient information to determine the
root cause of the installation error, which in this case is that
one of the packages I want (dovecot) depends on perl-510, however
perl-510 has been obsoleted.
Is there any way to forcefully remove entries of a package from system?
Not that I'm aware.
