What exactly needs to be done to get from OpenPKG > 1.3.1 to anywhere? [...] Can or should openpkg-1.9.0-2.0.0.src.rpm > be used at all?

There are no variants, bugfixes, security updates, etc. of that package ending up with the same triple. If a modified package needs to be released the <release> number will be incremented and a new package is rolled and released. The existing predecessor package(s) stay dormant on the ftp server. Regarding the 1.3 -> 2.0 intermediate package 1.9: we take any openpkg-2.0.x-2.0.x.src.rpm - change the version from 2.0.x to 1.9.x - remove the Class: header and - consolidate the class information into the Distribution: header - remove the %track section (bug: this step omitted in 1.9.0) - add a human readable note to the %description section and end up with openpkg-1.9.x-2.0.x.src.rpm Only x=0 is in the original release/2.0/SRC directory, all x>=1 are placed in the release/2.0/UPD directory, >From the http://www.openpkg.org/faq.html: Q: What should i do if multiple updates within a release exist? A: Our updates are patched full packages. Just take the latest. That applies to your specific question as well. Take the latest openpkg-1.9.x-2.0.x.src.rpm to upgrade to OpenPKG 2.0. To jump directly to CURRENT you must create your own companion "1.9" as described above. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], Cable & Wireless ______________________________________________________________________ The OpenPKG Project www.openpkg.org User Communication List [EMAIL PROTECTED]
