Were you perhaps thinking of the other way around? If service B declares service A to be a dependent, then importing B will create a dependency in A, and deleting B should delete that dependency. But if you delete A and reimport, the dependency will not be recreated. This does seem like a bug. I should be able to fix it in the profiles project (see http://opensolaris.org/os/project/smf-profiles ). David
