Comment 1 igor_nikiforov 2008-10-24 13:48:00 UTC 
Already installed Sun Studio detection mechanism was broken. Now it's fixed.
Comment 2 mesnik 2008-10-25 02:16:05 UTC 
I suppose to always check lib directory in the directory where sunstudio is planned to be installed. The lib directory
is often used and we should not broke it.
Comment 3 akumta 2008-11-03 19:07:33 UTC 
Verified with 10/30 build.
