IF you want to build illumos-omnos or illumos-gate on an OmniOS r151014 or later installation, you can do so now simply by uttering:
pkg install developer/illumos-tools
illumos-tools is a metapackage that brings in all of the required packages one needs to build illumos-gate or illumos-omnios. You can then just download the closed-binaries, git clone your favorite illumos-gate child, construct a .env file and get going.
I wanted to have this be a feature of r151016, but it was easy enough where I backported it.
Sorry I didn't have something like this sooner. I've also updated the How to Build illumos page on the illumos wiki.
Happy installing!
Dan
