I think in most cases CSW-packages are installed on servers (e.g. we 
have /no/ Solaris-Workstations). So imo you can't assume a full 
installation but a minimal installation.
I plan to implement the use of more then one "url"-line in pkg-get.conf 
and building a sunw-tree on our apt-server (only open for our 
university of course). We already have a subtree for our own packages 
(OpenAFS etc.)
So there is (or: will be) a way to get the dependancies automagically 
per pkg-get if these are mentioned in the package! For all developers: 
though it's not part of the policy of CSW, PLEASE include 
SUNW-dependancies.

Greetings
