Attempting to install the latest snmp patch on a Solaris 2.6 x86 machine.

I'm getting the following...


# ./installpatch .

WARNING: /usr/sbin/patchadd is being used to install this patch.
Installpatch will be removed from Solaris patches in
the next release of Solaris.


Checking installed patches...
One or more patch packages included in
106872-17 are not installed on this system.

Patchadd is terminating.


I'm thinking as I read this that other patches are required before applying 
this one, however the README for the patch states there are no required 
patches.

Am I reading this error correctly?
