[SunHELP] How to NOT install iPlanet in solaris 8 sparc ???

[Magnus Abrante]

Well, just like you are using the keyword "add" to add packages you can
use the keyword "delete" to delete a package which is included in the 
cluster from the installation process.

For instance to avoid installing the boundled netscape communicator:
package NSCPcom delete
