[pca] pca -l missing

[French, David]

I've run into a problem with something I am doing based on the output of
'pca -l missing'.   Our security team follows compliance via Sun Alerts
and not patches.  I use the output of this command and the info from the
Sun SApatches-pub.txt file, which maps patches needed for a Sun Alert.

 

Anyway, the problem is with the new kernel patch being 137137-09, the
'-l missing' no longer shows that any of the 137111-XX patches are not
applied.   Thus, it looks like an Alert is satisfied when it isn't.  

 

So my question is, is there an easy way to get pca to output more
information to handle this?  Or am I going to need to do all of the work
myself?   I ask as I will then need to recreate most of the work pca
already does.  

 

I guess any easier way to ask is there anyway to have pca also list
obsoleted patches that haven't been applied as kind of a full '-l
missing'?
