[pca] Display reqeusted revision

[Rajiv Gunja]

Michael,
If that is the case, then I would suggest scripting your requirement. If you
are running this on a handful of servers or handful of patches to filter /
verify, scripting using PCA seems easy to me.

Example: (I did not get hold of a Solaris 9 server, so showing example on a
Solaris 10 server)

# --> pca -y -l -H  --format=%i 120294-01
01

Assign this to a variable and put in a "IF" logic to check this variable is
lesser than or greater than your required revision and then take appropriate
action.

Hope this help.
