Today I realized I was missing the showrev command on a Solaris 10 machine I installed.
I found it in the SUNWadmc package but recieved the following error:
ld.so.1: showrev: fatal: libadmapm.so.2: open failed: No such file or directory
Then I found the following page:
showrev(1M) missing on Solaris 8
Adding the SUNWadmfw package as mentioned still left me with the following error:
ld.so.1: showrev: fatal: libadmutil.so.2: open failed: No such file or directory
It turns out I was missing the SUNWadmlib-sysid package.
SUMMARY
If you are missing showrev check if you have the following packages:
SUNWadmlib-sysid SUNWadmc SUNWadmfw
Good luck!

Could you post the information about how you located and installed those packages? This is the only decent google search result on the topic.

I figured it out, so I figured I'd follow-up on my earlier query.
Here's how I did it :
- mkdir /tmp/showrev
- Mount the DVD, or iso
- cd /path/to/dvd/Solaris_10/Product
- cp -r SUNWadmfw /tmp/showrev
- cp -r SUNWadmc /tmp/showrev
- cp -r SUNWadmlib-sysid /tmp/showrev
- pkgadd -d /tmp/showrev
- step throuh installation(all, yes, yes, yes)
- test showrev
# showrev
Hostname: solaris10
Hostid: 50a1c8f
Release: 5.10
Kernel architecture: i86pc
Application architecture: i386
Hardware provider:
Domain:
Kernel version: SunOS 5.10 Generic_118855-33
Note: If you can mount the DVD, that makes it easier. I couldn't on this machine, so I copied the relevant packages via SFTP.

Not to necro this thread. But the information is still valid and solved my showrev issues.
