In classical OpenSolaris or OpenIndiana /dev entire doesn't force any 
packages to be installed. It forces installed packages to be at fixed 
versions (if A is installed it should be A at 1.2.3). We haven't shipped 
similar package until this October. Now we
have userland-incorporation package which ensures that all installed 
packages have the latest versions.
This is usually an interesting task - to force installation of some 
package on already installed systems. For example, to force 
userland-incorporation installation I modified entire to depend on it.
