Hi All, I hope someone can give an answer to this question from a newbie: how can I handle situations when an already installed package (say A) needs to be upgraded due to a newly installed package (say B) as it's being a dependency for it but another already installed package (say C) still needs the older version of package A? Upgrading package C may be thought of as help but it disappeared from the 7.1 package repo and as far as I could see it was last present in 7.0_2017Q1.
If anyone is interested in the details, package A is icu, package B is seamonkey and package C is midori. What I did for now was that I changed /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf so that it points to 7.0_2017Q1 and installed seamonkey from that repo as the versions are not that different (seamonkey-2.46nb7 in 7.0_2017Q1 and seamonkey-2.46nb8 in 7.1) and it left icu untouched. By the way, what kind of difference is indicated by the number in the 'nb<number>' suffix? Another question would be if it's possible to keep different versions of a package installed? I know in case of shared libs it may be tricky because of the symlinks but the runtime linker is not looking for the symlink I hope but the versioned soname, right? Any hints are welcome! Best regards, r0ller
