Hi Doug, I will keep this in mind as a nice tip. I just upgraded 10.3 -> 10.4 Everything is working smoothly. I will experiment upgrading to 11 around the time 12 comes out. If 'pkg upgrade' gets my packages working with 11's ABI, that shall be cool. Else I shall just install 12 afresh. So your notes create an alternative for me. Thanks a lot. -- Tx and Regards, Manish Jain
