I should add that pkg is a tad confused on my machine at the moment:

$ pfexec pkg install SUNWj6rt
Nothing to install in this image (is this package already installed?)

richb at stard:~$ pkg info SUNWj6rt
          Name: SUNWj6rt
       Summary: JDK 6.0 Runtime Env. (1.6.0_07)
         State: Not installed
     Authority: osol-re
       Version: 0.5.11
 Build Release: 5.11
        Branch: 0.99
Packaging Date: Wed Oct  8 14:36:28 2008
          Size: 86.4 MB
          FMRI: pkg://osol-re/SUNWj6rt@0.5.11,5.11-0.99:20081008T143628Z

richb at stard:~$ pfexec pkg install -v SUNWj6rt
Before evaluation:                   
UNEVALUATED:

After evaluation:
None
Nothing to install in this image (is this package already installed?)

richb at stard:~$

Is there something I can easily do to find out if this package is installed
and if it isn't, then why trying to install fails? I.e. are there any
debug I can set?
