Trouble installing SUNWxwinc

Hi All:

I'm trying to install the Xlib headers (SUNWxwinc package) on OpenSolaris latest release (2008.5), and after installing around 248 files, the installer fails complaining of "Not an owner //usr/include/X11".

Is the package broken?

I was able to install the package. I am using 2008.05 with packages updated to nevada build 91.

Did you run pfexec before the pkg install command? You need to run the installation with root privileges.

Yes, I did use pfexec.

This is the command I used to install the package:

shell> pfexec pkg install SUNWxwinc

But, I'm running 2008.5 only, how do I update the packages to nevada build 91?
