His issue is the same as the one I had, the only difference is x86/sparc. I agree they are related to the packages installed and this additional data removes platform as a cause. I think tracking the issue in a single thread would be beneficial for others seeking an answer to the same issue, but I am a forum noob so I am going along with the mods.

Aristotle,

It may be helpful to know if you are running a supported copy of Solaris or the public release.

If you are unsure this is the command output for the public/unsupported release:

Code:
# pkg publisher
PUBLISHER                   TYPE     STATUS P LOCATION
solaris                     origin   online F http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/

Since you the thread owner agree and ask, I will try to re link them then (cross your fingers...)

It seems that this is the desired behavior of this incorporation package. (Perhaps I should have read this first) My take on their language below is that this incorporation is designed to lock all system package versions to the same release to prevent untested and/or incompatible packages from being installed. I think the output we are seeing is as Oracle desires and we are just holding until all of the packages are updated and a new 'entire' incorporation package is released.



Code:
 pkg info entire
          Name: entire
       Summary: Incorporation to lock all system packages to the same build
   Description: This package constrains system package versions to the same
                build.  WARNING: Proper system update and correct package
                selection depend on the presence of this incorporation.
                Removing this package will result in an unsupported system.
