If you have rpm distro or some else Linux than you can convert Solaris package to rpm package.
Quote:
alien is a program that converts between Red Hat rpm, Debian deb, Stampede slp, Slackware tgz, and Solaris pkg file formats. If you want to use a package from another linux distribution than the one you have installed on your system, you can use alien to convert it to your preferred package format and install it. It also supports LSB packages

rpmdb
RPMDB(8) System Manager's Manual RPMDB(8)NAME
rpmdb - RPM Database Tool
SYNOPSIS
rpm {--initdb|--rebuilddb}
DESCRIPTION
The general form of an rpm rebuild database command is
rpm {--initdb|--rebuilddb} [-v] [--dbpath DIRECTORY] [--root DIRECTORY]
Use --initdb to create a new database if one doesn't already exist (existing database is not overwritten), use --rebuilddb to rebuild the
database indices from the installed package headers.
SEE ALSO popt(3),
rpm(8),
rpmkeys(8),
rpmsign(8),
rpm2cpio(8),
rpmbuild(8),
rpmspec(8),
rpm --help - as rpm supports customizing the options via popt aliases it's impossible to guarantee that what's described in the manual
matches what's available.
