Upgrading Systems Running Solaris 8 Operating Environment With Full Thai/Russian/Polish/Catalan Support Leaves Invalid Packages on System (4650059)

If you upgrade to the Solaris 9 9/02 operating environment on a system running the Solaris 8 operating environment with the Solaris 8 Language Supplement CD installed, several invalid Thai, Russian, Polish, and Catalan locale packages remain on the system. These locale packages have an ARCH=sparcall value, and are not removed during the upgrade to the Solaris 9 9/02 operating environment.

Workaround: Before you upgrade to the Solaris 9 9/02 operating environment, use the Solaris Product Registry application to remove the Solaris 8 Languages Supplement CD packages.
