Hi Martin,<br>
<br>
I'll take a look into this one and get back to you.<br>
<br>
Off the top of my head I suspect there are probably multiple reasons
here... <br>
<br>
In most of the examples below the products that these patches apply
on top of exist as standalone (aka unbundled) products outside of
Solaris. In these scenarios there may only be an intersection of
only one or two of the pkgs that are delivered in the standalone
product with Solaris and thus the teams that own those products stop
requesting us to include the latest patches for their product in
Solaris Updates.<br>
119788-12 is an example of this; only 2 of the pkgs in the patch are
part of Solaris.<br>
<br>
I think that the Java patches are related to the need to have
customers accept an updated license which is limiting the versions
that get freshbitted into the latest update.<br>

A PCA user, who already installed Solaris 10 1/13, wondered why
some rather old patches are not pre-installed (see below). As I've
seen that happen with previous update releases, too, I've wondered
about the same thing - does anybody have an idea about why certain
- really old - patches are excluded?
