Sun Webstack 1.4 - Packages on Crack

I am a huge fan of Sun Microsystems. I love Solaris 10. I love ZFS. I love RBAC. I love zones. I really love T2/T2+ processors. I especially love the T5140 and X4450 servers.

One thing I cannot figure out though, is why Sun lets obviously delirious cocaine addicts package their software. Maybe I'm exaggerating but I think that many will agree that Sun's packages leave much to be desired in general. On top of that, Sun seems to have a constant need to move software around and invent new paths- to boldy go where no sysadmin has gone before????
