Operating Systems Solaris Remove unwanted packages Post 302322710 by System Shock on Thursday 4th of June 2009 11:21:15 AM

The first suggestion I'd make is to do a fresh install. That will prevent a lot of grief.

Now, what do you mean by "automated"? You still have to tell the shell which packages need to be removed. Stuff like Gnome, StarOffice, they are defined in clusters. Star Office is installed from SUNWCstaroffice, Gnome/JDS is SUNWCgna11* (there are 2 or three). So, you could get a list of the packages in the cluster you want to remove, and pass it to a pkgrm loop. If you have a test box somewhere, you may even try and see if pkgrm would remove the cluster (never tride it before, but now I'm curious).
