Alternatively after each successfull installation the command for the
remaining packages could be put in /var/opt/csw/pkgutil/finish-pkgupdate.sh
or similar which would contain something like
  #!/bin/sh
  /opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -y -i <list of yet uninstalled packages>
and which is removed after pkgutil successfully installed all packages.
On reinvocation the commandfile must be correctly overwritten and executed
at the same time in some smart way :-)


Best regards
