So essentially at this time blastwave is just a *bad idea* for global zones. Is something like sunfreeware ok then? I assume the -G option should work with those packages?
I don't know a lot of the details of blastwave and how many different options it gives you. However, in some cases the behavior you are seeing is a "good thing". It is nice sometimes to be able to manage all of your software across your virtual environments from a single point (the global zone). In other cases you want to manage things independently. Generally, you have the ability to do both with zones (modulo the shared the shared OS). However, I am not sure if blastwave is zone aware or not. But, it sounds like zonemgr does a nice job of integrating with blastwave to solve some of these issues.
