[pca] Missing sconadm on Solaris 10 1/13

[Glen Gunselman]

It is my understanding that Red Hat is not as generous as they once were.

I will be surprised if I use Solaris 11 in any significant way.  It looks like we are moving in an x86/Linux/VMware direction.

Have you looked at OEL/OVM? (very off topic - but it is Friday :) )

Have a good weekend,
GlenG

To be fair, they kind of did that in Solaris 11 (IPS/pkg).

Unfortunately I will never use that - for us, the next Solaris version 
after 10 will most probably not be 11, but "Red Hat".
