Yes, Sun is not going to support / distribute the Intel binaries for Solaris any more... not making enough money on it (they make most money from corporations, which usually buy their hardware anyways). That means that when Solaris 9 comes out, there will be no Intel version at all.

I believe they're also discontinuing the source-sharing programs as well...

Darn shame too...

spectool - manual page for spectool v1.0.10rpmdev1 SYNOPSIS
spectool [<options>] <specfile> DESCRIPTION
Spectool is a tool to expand and download sources and patches from specfiles. If you experience problems with specific specfiles, try to run rpmbuild --nobuild --nodeps <specfile> on the file which might give a clue why spectool fails on a file (ignore anything about missing sources or patches). The plan is to catch errors like this in spectool itself and warn the user about it in the future. OPTIONS
