[OpenIndiana-discuss] pkg only installing command-line tools

[Rainer Heilke]

Never mind; I've given up. :-(
I need to get going setting up software, so I'm reinstalling the LiveCD 
knowing the network is pooched and that it won't save desktop settings, 
and who knows what else. Maybe the 151a9 update will fix things.

A very disappointed,
Rainer
