When you perform upgrades (e.g. from 1.1 to 1.2), do you build the entire
openpkg instance in the same directory? e.g. if $root is
/home/csoft/suse81 when using openpkg 1.1, then you build and upgrade to
1.2, do you use the same $root ? Do you use rpm/openpkg-tool to upgrade or
do you simply mv the directory and install a fresh copy ?

Presumably the /csoft/xxx symlink is just for end-user convenience in the
same fashion as I was considering /foo/opkg/prod -> 1.x ?
