Workaround: After you upgrade the system, upgrade these localized packages by following these steps:

Become superuser.

Remove the packages.

# pkgrm SUNWmeadt SUNWnafdt SUNWnamdt SUNWneudt \
SUNWseudt SUNWweudt

Change to the directory that contains the Solaris 9 9/04 versions of these packages.

# cd path_to_image

For example, to access these packages on the Solaris 9 9/04 Software 1 of 2 CD, insert the Solaris 9 9/04 Software 1 of 2 CD in the media drive. Then type the following command.

# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_9/Product

Add the packages to your system.

# pkgadd -d . SUNWmeadt SUNWnafdt SUNWnamdt SUNWneudt \
SUNWseudt SUNWweudt
