Solaris 11.4 repository update

Lawve SeebaruthMar 7 2025

Hello,

Trying to update Solaris 11.4 to the latest available repository on a refresh Ldom.

I have updated the digest text; run the install script ( install-repo.ksh)

However, the script uncompresses the last file only:

When doing pkg info entire, it shows the last update (2025) date correctly but when point the repo to other ldom, it shows that the repo date is on 2022.

Detail:
