If I understand you right, you should have removed the pkgmaster 4.1.2-3
before adding the Sun patch. Search the archive and there's more information
on it.

To fix what you have now, I think people have uninstalled the pkgmaster
4.1.2-3, reinstalled the Sun patch and then reinstalled the pkgmaster
4.1.2-3. Or, you may have to start off by installing the pkgmaster 4.1.2-3,
and then uninstalling it and work from there.
