Err... every foo-X.Y-1.3.x.src.rpm package under
ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.3/UPD/ is for OpenPKG 1.3, including the
updated bootstrap openpkg-1.3.1-1.3.1.src.rpm, of course.

I guess you misunderstood our versioning. An OpenPKG release
1.3 is formed out of foo-X.Y-1.3.0.src.rpm packages in
ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.3/SRC/ plus (after time comes) various
foo-X.Y-1.3.x.src.rpm packages (x >= 1). But a foo-X.Y-1.3.2.src.rpm
has nothing to do with an OpenPKG 1.3.2 release. There is no such
thing. OpenPKG releases have no patch-level, only individual
packages of a release have patch-levels. And the patch-levels are
_INDIVIDUAL_ to each package, of course. And the bootstrap package
"openpkg-1.3.1-1.3.1.src.rpm" is not different in any way: it just is
the first patch-level of package "openpkg" and belonging to OpenPKG 1.3.
Nothing more or less.

So, the rule is simple: for running OpenPKG 1.3, you install the
packages from ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.3/SRC/ and upgrade
to the latest patchlevel of a package if it can be found under
ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.3/UPD/. That's all...
