Hello.

Note to all OpenIndiana Hipster users:
0.151.1.8* package versions were replaced by 2013.0.0.0 versions, so ensure that pkg list |grep '0\.151\.1\.' output is empty after update (if you use only /hipster-2015 and /hipster-encumbered repositories). All *-2013.0.0.0 packages were not recompiled, only version numbers were changed.

Yes, thanks to the work of Hans Rosenfeld (Woodstock), now you can try updating OpenIndiana /dev installations to /hipster-2015. I specially say 'can try' as we have removed principal obstacles, but there can be rough edges.

Great! Thank you Woodstock, this is really important moment.
Testing update in next weeks could be crucial, tested with as much packages as possible etc, so that one hipster-2015 snapshot can be made, that 151a9 /dev could always surely update to.

That snapshot can be wayout point for upgrading from /dev that could always be available. So let's test updating! :) ('beadm create' for making Boot Environment -BE- snapshots is your friend)



First of all, note, that we have replaced most of the Studio-compiled C++ libraries with GCC-compiled (if some are still here, it's not a feature, but a bug). So, if your C++ applications used something besides system/library/c++/sunpro, it will not work without recompilation.

Second, some packages can be present in /dev, but not in /hipster. Such packages should be uninstalled (or added to oi-userland, if you need them).

Now, if you are brave enough, you can try to update your system.

0) Create backup. Really.
1) Uninstall all packages from opensolaris.org publisher
2) pkg set-publisher -g http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster-2015 -G http://pkg.openindiana.org/dev openindiana.org
3) pkg unset-publisher opensolaris.org
4) pkg refresh --full
5) pkg update --be-name oi-hipster -nv 2>&1|less - look how it is going to work
6) pkg update --be-name oi-hipster -v
7) boot new BE and check that you don't have packages with '*0.151.1.*' branch versions installed
(check that
pkg list |grep '0\.151\.1\.'
output is empty)
8) ensure that you have userland incorporation and entire installed:
pkg install userland-incorporation [email protected]


I've checked that at least I can update default OI /dev text installation
