I only joined the MOS in the last 6 months. For the latest Critical Patch set for Soalris 10, from July 2015 (and also in the April 2015 critical patch set), there are patches listed like "zzzzzz-yy Obsoleted by xxxxxx-ww". The obsolete patch zzzzzz-yy is in the CP set, but not the newer patch xxxxxx-ww. Example from July 2015 CP set: patch 146055-07 is obsoleted by 146697-04 according to the CP set readme file. Patch 146697, any version, is not included in the CPU set. When I checkd on MOS for patch 146055-07 (last updated 18-Nov-2013 14:34), it says this patch has been superseded by 146697-04 (last updated 15-Jul-2014 04:35), which in turn has been obsoleted by 146697-05 (last updated 15-Jul-2014 04:35), again not found in the CPU set.
Is there seomthing I'm missing or don't understand?
