Summary:                    Package contains file to be installed in /usr -
doesn't work in a sparse zone
Description: 
I am trying to install Apache 2 in a sparse Solaris 10 zone, with /usr
being an inherited-pkg-dir, thus read-only. Apache depends on
CSWcswclassutils (or a dependency of Apache depends on...), thus it is
impossible to install it in a sparse zone.

Making this package only install stuff in /etc, /var, and /opt/csw would
be very appreciated.

OK thanks for the clarification. My statement about pkg-get wasn't intended
to offend - it's what's on the general consumption web pages -
http://opencsw.org/packages and http://opencsw.org. The improvements in
pkgutil with regards to dependencies might be enough for me to make the
switch on my production systems.

I'll probably just end up setting up a special case cron job that
automatically updates cswclassutils on my global zones just so that I know
it's always up to date before I try to do package installations from my
non-global zones.
