I'd appreciate learning from you the correct way to overcome an
issue run-into installing a package into a new zone being built
from a solaris-small-server group base.

I've installed Oracle R Distribution 3.3.0 and its support package
into /opt/ORD:

* ord-3.3.0-sol10-sparc-64-sunstudio12u4.tar.gz
* ord-3.3.0-supporting-sol10-sparc-64-sunstudio12u4.tar.gz

However libmtsk and libpicle were missing so I looked for them on
https://pkg.oracle.com/solaris and attempted to install them:

# pkg install system/library/ma...@0.5.11,5.11-0.151.0.1:20101105T061138Z

Was my error to specify /opt/ORD as the install directory to the
installation script? As a result, the script did this:

pkgadd -a /tmp/install.sh.999.tmp -d /tmp/pkgs -R /opt/ORD ORD

and, unless I now specify -R, pkginfo listing won't include the
package since even the system information files are relocated.

Had I *not* specified an installation directory of /opt/ORD, by
default it would have installed to /usr/lib/sparcv9/R
(which seemed a little obscure). Had I stuck to the default,
would I not now be facing inability to install missing libraries?

Thanks,

Andrew Gabriel

Why are you trying to install the wrong version for SRU 20.5?
Just drop the version strings (the '@' and everything to the right),
and it will install the right versions for the SRU.

No, this is unrelated.

Well, that's a wierd thing to do, but not related.
If the package is relocatable, it will ask you where you
want it installed. Otherwise you might find it doesn't
work because library runpaths might be wrong, but try it
and see.

Because I just copied that user-friendly string from pkg.oracle.com

I shouldn't have attempted installation into /opt ?

Thanks, it worked after installing system/picl.

Why are you using a specific version?

If you are in Solaris 11.3 SRU 20.5 and you install "system/library/math"
you will get the proper version (which seems to be 0.5.11-0.175.3.13.0.1.0

># pkg install system/pi...@0.5.11,5.11-0.175.3.0.0.30.0:20150821T155926Z

Same here; BTW, both should likely already be installed.

When I search for the two libraries I find libmtsk.so in
pkg:/system/library/openmp, so you should just install that.

They did not have a IPS package? Then it should work just
fine as you would automatically get all the dependencies.

-R is to show a differennt root directory and it should generally not
be used for installing packages.

I think that by using -R you've made things a lot more difficult.
