0002926: bad man page installed
A zero length /opt/csw/share/man/man1/sh.1 file is installed by this package. This breaks man page lookup for the system Bourne shell.
I think that it is of questionable merit to install a replacement shell as part of a utility package meant to support CD/DVD creation, a tar replacement and an editor without making it clear to the user what is going on.

If such a shell is needed it should not use the name of the system standard shell, and it should probably be installed as a separate package.
