Well my initial understanding was "no", however I think Symantec may have
changed the rules on this.... But I thought you may have needed to be at MP6

We're on Solaris v5.1 MP5.  Will we need to upgrade to 6.0 before going to
6.5?  Anyone know?

6.0 Was a MAJOR rewrite of code that was long overdue.  I think issues were
to be expected.  6.5 is a regular enhancement release so I don't expect you
will see the same challenges as going to 6.0.  I think part of the delay in
releasing the code was to make sure it was as stable as it could possibly be
going out the door. If you are moving from 5.X to 6.5, there is still all
the same pre-work that needs to be done to make sure the upgrade is
successful however.

Hopefully 6.5 won't be a nightmare like 6.0?  (until 6.0MP4 anyway)
