Oracle release 11.4 cbe some years ago, to give Solaris free for non commercial use.
I was happy about this, but..
root@solaris2:~# LANG=C pkg publisher
PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS P LOCATION
solaris origin online F http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/
root@solaris2:~# LANG=C pkg update
No updates available for this image.
Planning linked: 1/1 done
As you can see this version don't get any update since 2023
pkg history|grep install
2023-02-22T18:39:25 uninstall transfer module Riuscito
2023-03-28T00:19:38 install pkg Riuscito
Is my fault?
I've set publisher with this command
pkg set-publisher -G'*' -g http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/ solaris
As you know a system without updates is not safe to use..
As I know Solaris use two repositories: release and support, the support repository is only for subscribers with a support contract, so they release Oracle for free use and.. no updates?
pkg info entire report
Version: 11.4 (Oracle Solaris 11.4.42.111.0)
