Pkg update: No solution was found to satisfy constraints
I have an x86 Solaris box running 11.2 and have run into the following issue when attempting to run a package update. Has anyone else come across this issue and resolved it successfully, or am I waiting on Oracle to release other updated packages?



Code:
 

uname -a
SunOS <hostname> 5.11 11.2 i86pc i386 i86pc


pkg update -nv
Creating Plan (Running solver): -
pkg update: No solution was found to satisfy constraints
Plan Creation: Package solver has not found a solution to update to latest available versions.
This may indicate an overly constrained set of packages are installed.

latest incorporations:

  pkg://solaris/consolidation/sunpro/sunpro-incorporation@0.5.11,5.11-0.175.2.1.0.4.0:20140728T200719Z

Hi Nova_Cyclist,

Not 100% here, but it could be that the packages still have constraints and dependencies relating back to the good old "SUNW" packages and they may not be visible in the repository.

Also from memory I heard mention of this before and there was an update package available, but I think you had to file a SR with Oracle to get access to it.

Regards

Dave

Dave,

Thank you for your reply. This constraint issue popped up recently for me (after the initial 11.2 upgrade 'pkg update -nv' was clean). I think I am just waiting on some dependencies to get sorted and published on the Oracle side.

That or this is Oracle's new paywall for those using Solaris at home w/o $4k/year support contracts.

Thanks again,

Eamon
