NEW IN VERSION 2.0
- OpenPKG 2.0 now fully supports FreeBSD 4.9 and 5.2, Debian GNU/Linux
- 3.0 and 3.1, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and Fedora Core 1, SuSE Linux
- 9.0, and Sun Solaris 8, 9 and 10. The CORE applications are also
- supported on Debian GNU/Linux 2.2, Red Hat Linux 9, SuSE 8.2, Gentoo
- 1.4 and Solaris 2.6. The portable nature enables additional platforms
- to leverage portions of OpenPKG technolgy on NetBSD, OpenBSD and
- Mandrake Linux [FIXME HP Tru64, SCO UnixWare and QNX]
+ After a series of four 1.x releases over the last three years, this is
+ another major release shifting OpenPKG to the next stage.
+ OpenPKG 2.0 is now available for 16 different Unix platforms, most
+ notably for the 8 fully supported platforms FreeBSD 4.9 and 5.2,
+ Debian GNU/Linux 3.0, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and Fedora Core 1,
+ SuSE Linux 9.0, and Sun Solaris 8 and 9. Additionally, all CORE (and
+ mostly all BASE) class packages are additionally available for both
+ the still tentative platforms Debian GNU/Linux 3.1, Gentoo Linux 1.4,
+ Sun Solaris 10 and the already obsoleted platforms Debian GNU/Linux
+ 2.2, Red Hat Linux 9, SuSE Linux 8.2, and Sun Solaris 2.6.
