[Pkg-team] [OpenIndiana Distribution - Bug #1431] (New) packagemanager a noop?

[illumos project]

Issue #1431 has been updated by Chris Jordan.

Status changed from Feedback to New
Assignee changed from Chris Jordan to OI PKG
Tags changed from needs-triage to package-manager

Thank you.  I can duplicate the problem you reported if I uninstall firefox first, then try to run package-manager.  If I reinstall python-gnome-extras-26 (which also reinstalls firefox, since it depends on firefox), then package-manager works again.  Looks like something in python-gnome-extras-26 is needed by package-manager, but python-gnome-extras-26 is not listed as a dependency of package-manager.  I'm assigning this to OI PKG.

Thought I try http://staticdev.uk.openindiana.org:10003 (on oi_151)
so I clicked on the packager manager icon.  nada.
started a shell tried "packagemanager".  nada
sudo packagemanager ... black hole
packagemanager --version  .... nothing.


what gives?  only the command line pkg command works.
