As OpenSolaris is developing slowly packeges that first existed as

very hard. But you could try to search,
pkg search <pkgs>, typicaly, SFEpkgs is renamed as SUNWpkgs.
OK, and can I see somewhere what the future brings to us; kind of a
preview of packages that are supposed to one day make this transititon?
It was sort of that. There were packages in SFE for evaluations, other
hackers put that there.
So that these software can be built and used as is. For OpenSolaris
though, I think the right
way to SFE is actually use source juicer,
http://jucr.opensolaris.org/home/
That caters for all developers, though some of the software may
eventually promoted to /dev by
Sun or developers who work with Sun developers to make it to /dev. Of
course, everyone is
welcome to continue to use SFE if you don't want to ue pkg(5)
