In short, the way the OpenSolaris distribution is currently built
pretty much requires SUNWfirefox if you want to use the included GNOME.
I understand Your position in this question. My English is not enough to
discussion and reductions of arguments (mea culpa).
Firefox is not the best example from my side, but You can think about
any foobar package. :)
--force and --upward-recursive flags are very useful in practice.
I am sure that some years later, when the quantity of packages in
OpenSolaris will reach certain quantity (xx thousands), these flags will
be implemented in package manager.
As I already said, -r does what you said for --upward. Look at the
output of 'uninstall -nrv'.
You could certainly execute 'uninstall -rv SUNWfirefox' now, but I
wouldn't recommend it.
There are no plans to implement -f at this time; it has been discussed.
Cheers,
