While tracking down which packages and patches I might have been
missing on my 9.0.x Ultra10 box [quite a long and involved story that
I won't recount right now], I noticed that one of the packages,
SUNWifgbl, listed in solaris8-nolocal-sun4u did not appear on my
system. Upon further investigation, there is no package SUNWifgbl in
/install/cdrom or /install/cdrom/cdrom.link, but there is a SUNWifbgl.
Curiously enough, SUNWifbgl does appear elsewhere in the file
solaris8-nolocal-sun4u, so this probably doesn't matter *too* much,
but the nonexitent package SUNWifgbl should probably get deleted from
the package list to avoid possibly generating spurious errors when
upgrading/installing a sun4u machine at 9.0.
Also, SUNWifbgl appears in version scripts 9.0.8 *and* 9.0.9 for no
apparent reason, though it probably won't hurt things too much.
