Here's how this reads: the package from ms.omniti.com cannot be
installed because it constrains 'entire' to 11,5.11-0.151006. This is
because, as far as I know, OmniTI builds their managed services
(omniti-ms) packages only for LTS, and they add incorporate dependencies
to prevent the packages from being installed on newer releases.

OpenLDAP is also available in the repo that I maintain
(http://pkg.niksula.hut.fi/). While it doesn't constrain entire to
151006 like omniti-ms packages do, the packages have been built in
151006 and I make no guarantees about them working on any release, but
of course welcome pull requests ;)

All that said, per KYSTY (http://omnios.omniti.com/wiki.php/KYSTY) it
might be a good idea to build packages you want yourself to avoid being
constrained by someone else's idea of what version you should get. This
is pretty easy to do by forking omnios-build and pulling ready-made
build scripts from the available repositories.
