I'm using openpkg-1.1.1 + Solaris 8. One of the very first src.rpm packages I want to install w/ openpkg is openssh (and related dependencies such as openssl, etc). Unfortunately, the stable (solid ?) version available @ ftp.openpkg.org is older (3.4p1) than the latest version from openssh.com (3.5p1), which is in the CURRENT part of ftp.openpkg.org.
>From reading the tutorial, it seems I could build+install the CURRENT src.rpm anyway and force a "downgrade" (somehow using --oldpackage or --nodeps ?) when the stable/solid version comes out. Is that correct? In general, the docs suggest that openpkg keeps up to date with the latest versions of various software. This is great, specifically for things like openssh which have frequent security updates. Unfortunately, I'm concerned that even if the latest is available, I can't use it because the openpkg distribution of the src.rpm is not considered production ready. Have users found this to be a problem, or am I worrying too much?
