Update Manager tells I am running an Live Image
0%
Description
Hello, I installed OpenIndiana-148-dev on my laptop nearly half a month ago.
When I checked for package updates with Update Manager today, I got the following error "This is an Live Image. The install operation can't be performed".
I need your help for this even though I know there may be no updates at all.
I love this distribution, and it runs faster on my laptop than Solaris and OpenSolaris.
Thank you for your attention and best regards!

For people reading this, the workaround is to use pkg image-update. The bug only affects the packagemanager GUI.
