Hi:

I suggest that you first verify what the depot contains:

# swlist -d -s /tmp/sw_depot

Right. You may want to list patches:
swlist -l patch -s /tmp/sw_depot

You have to verify whether the relevant patch is included or not.
#swlist -l patch -s /tmp/sw_depot

Or grep the required path.

Or an interactive way:

# swinstall -s /tmp/sw_depot

Then pick the patches you need for installation.
