How to install .p51 packages in Solaris 11.4?
Does anyone know how to install a package that comes in a p5i file in Solaris 11.4? The first thing the Oracle documentation says is to "launch packagemanager". Well they removed packagemanager from 11.4 (and you can't install it yourself). I want a package from
http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster/en/catalog.shtml?version=0.5.11%2C0.5.11-2018.0.0.0&action=Browse
When I mouse over the "Install" link it pops up "Launch the Package Manager and install this package". Uh, no Package Manager. I tried downloading the p5i file and then saying "# pkg install pkg-name" but that didn't work either. This is a mystery.
And while I'm asking, this should probably go in the Solaris subforum but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get there either. Whenever I click on the "ask a question" button it takes me here.

age-name-1-1.rpm which will put the contents into /usr/share/xml/scap. No dependency on openscap or scapworkbench is enforced in the output
