That's probably because of this change in pca:

   * Check for patches which are only partly installed

   see: http://www.mail-archive.com/pca@lists.univie.ac.at/msg00397.html

Can you please re-run pca in debug mode and show me any lines with 
"unpatched package"? If you get exactly these two:

   120011-14: unpatched package SUNWiopc
   127127-11: unpatched package SUNWiopc

.. then please get the current developer's release of pca, which 
contains a fix (the patches will not show up anymore).

Can you show me "uname -a" output and tell me which release of Solaris 
10 you have installed? Has the machine been installed from scratch or 
upgraded from an earlier release? Has the machine been patched 
frequently, and have packages been installed manually after initial install?

Anybody else - if you see patches which are already installed showing up 
in pca's output, please let me know (and include the above information). 
It seems as if the feature mentioned above triggers some false 
positives. If there are too many, I will have to disable detection of 
partly installed patches again.

Martin.
