Does anyone know if there are any known compatibility issues with an Intel Xeon E-2468 system (128GB RAM, Dell PowerEdge R260) running the latest Illumos (SmartOS)?

andyf, alanc: Do you happen to know how pkgdepend knows that /platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-T200 has /platform/sun4v in its runpath?

(I picked an example that should register for everyone, I don't need to be told sparc is obsolete)

there's a comment in our elf.py that asks exactly what I'm asking

which doesn't bode well

jclulow: you too, if helios searches this way

richlowe: I don't know off hand, I'm afraid, but I feel like I've looked in here before

thats about pkg?

richlowe: I think it's some combination of the actual runpath in the ELF thing, and manipulating the pkg.depend.runpath attribute through mogs or whatever?

jclulow: that doesn't work for kernel objects

though the mogs would, but I can't find that. I'll check

it looks like pkgdepend generate is filling in the pkg.depend.runpath bits

so probably back to the comment in elf.py I referenced

does doc/filter.txt give a hint?

much of doc/ is from before anything really got written

I don't remember beyond what's in elf.py

oracle/solaris-ips 661d15d isn't really enlightening either

my problem is in fact that `else:`

at least spiritually, I didn't debug it

if I'm in /platform/<board platform>/kernel/... pkgdepend believes it can't find /platform/<platform>/kernel

<platform> is in a PLATFORM= token, but if that code gets skipped if I'm a platform too...

that would totally line up with what I see

yeah, it's broken, it looks xen as was worked around it too

I filed omniosorg/pkg5 #510

because I don't know where else pkg bugs that might someday get fixed can be filed
