  • Looks like Package 'library/python/pillow-34' must be uninstalled or upgraded if the requested operation is to be performed. Commented Feb 28, 2020 at 2:10
  • Looks like the OVM software depends on a (very) old version of pkg://solaris/system/io/test-drivers. Did you download the latest available OVM version? Commented Mar 2, 2020 at 9:23
  • Besides, the version of Solaris you're running is from July 2019, probably time to update... Commented Mar 2, 2020 at 9:25

This looks as though something is up with your Solaris repo.

You have SRU11 installed and the installer is trying to install the corresponding system/io/test-drivers package but that's failing.

I'd expect 'pkg list -af system/io/test-drivers' to show the SRU11 version of the package if it was available. But it doesn't.

This can happen if the system was updated to SRU11, the system/io/test-drivers was never installed, and then someone unset the publisher for example.

You need to check that you have the solaris publisher pointed to the support repo from Oracle or an internal copy that has all the content for SRU11.
