Yep, the path in the webmin script didn't get updated when the SMF manifests
were moved from /var/svc to /lib/svc in SFW in build 140.

I've filed the following bug report against the upstream/opensolaris SFW
version.   OI can of course apply the obvious fix as a downstream patch
before that's fixed.   (The bug report should appear on bugs.opensolaris.org
in a day or two, since the bug view there only resyncs to the internal master
once a day.)

=== *Description* ============================================================
The webmin smf manifest was moved from /var/svc to /lib/svc with the
rest of the SFW SMF manifests by CR 6939380 in snv_140.

The webminsetup script is still looking for it in /var/svc though,
resulting in this failure:

Running postinstall scripts ..
..done

svccfg: Unable to stat file /var/svc/manifest/application/management/webmin.xml.
 No such file or directory
Attempting to start Webmin mini web server..
svcadm: Pattern 'application/management/webmin' doesn't match any instances
ERROR: Failed to start web server!

=== *Public Comments* ========================================================

=== *Workaround* =============================================================
Change /var to /lib in this line in /usr/sfw/lib/webmin/setup-post.sh:

		svccfg import /var/svc/manifest/application/management/webmin.xml
