Can someone explain how to correctly map Solaris 10 packages to Solaris 11
in an automated fashion?

The problem is that the output returned from "pkg info -r <pkg>" is not
consistent for all packages in the "Renamed to:" field. Some packages list
multiple packages and some list none at all even though the "set
name=pkg.renamed value=true" is set in their file (and in "pkg contents -mr
<pkg>). Also, when multiple packages are listed in the "Renamed to:" field,
it can create a seemingly endless loop for trying to get the true name of
the new package.

Note: I'm not interested in the "consolidation name" but the true value of
the new package name.
