Running snv_111a and that has thunderbird 2.0.0.21 already
Are you running SXCE or OpenSolaris distro ?
OpenSolaris, I always thought that was in some way slightly behind SXCE in terms of release date and therefore versions. Checked snv_111 and that has 2.0.0.21.
However snv_110 has 2.0.0.18!
Regards Paul
Paul,
that's what I thought. OpenSolaris (the distribution) is different from SXCE. While it tracks SXCE build-by-build, occasionally the exact set of the delivered binaries is different from that of the SXCE.
This blog entry is about the SXCE distribution (as it says in the subject)
BTW, snv_xxx is a kernel version (as reported by uname). Comparing application availability based in the kernel version may be misleading.
Cheers
How would you suggest is the best way to specify where your machine is upto in the development cycle, perhaps quote the Assembled date in /etc/release?
I generally use the full image update (using pkg) it's caused a couple of headaches, especially with MySQL5.0 and 5.1 but hey I'm not using this in production ;-)
Anyway just to say I find your blog really useful, thanks Paul
