I am expecting to give pkgutil a try.

Since my Solaris8 box here at work has no internet connection, when I
want to add an openCSW package, I want to know all the openCSW packages
I need to get by hand and bring along. I think pkgutil can do that for
me.

I did get the very latest catalog and descriptions and I have those in
[name]/sparc/5.8/
And I have the "mirror" set to file://[name] in /opt/csw/pkgutil.conf

If I want to get tetex, what would the pkgutil command be (without it
doing any pkgadd)?
