I'm not sure what to do. However, when doing a bit of checking I did find on thing. The patchadd manpage (at least for Sol 10) has a very long list at the end showing the possible error messages as well as workarounds. If you haven't looked at that yet, see if you can find the error message you got when it first failed on that list. Maybe you'll find something useful there.

Hi guys,
I am really new to Solaris. My question is about the patching package management. Now I was provided some old packages within that there are hard-coded codes written with commands like "patchadd", so anyway I can make them work with Solaris 11?
