I'm not sure whether I understand your question. OpenPKG-CURRENT _is_
at rsync-2.5.7-20031204. Only OpenPKG-1.2-SOLID and OpenPKG-1.3-SOLID
packages are at rsync-2.5.5-1.2.1 and rsync-2.5.6-1.3.1. But these are
old versions with the security bugfix backported. And that's the way we
do all security update packages: the vendor version is intentionally
kept (for full compatibility) and the security fix is included.
