This is how it looks when installing a CAS package in a sparse zone (with
read-only /usr):

Please see /opt/csw/share/doc/cas_usergroup/license for license
information.

The read-only status of /usr can be checked with mount and a useful
message could be printed to help the user, something like: "You need to
install the cas* packages in the global zone first".

This should be added to all cas packages (now that they are separate).
