I'm confused how to upgrade the openpkg. Can I use: openpkg build openpkg-2.1.0-2.1.0.src.rpm | sh
or openpkg rpm -ba openpkg-2.1.0-2.1.0.src.rpm or something similar ? Will it automaticaly preserve the OpenPkg_users and Instalation path ? thanks, Alex Citando Thomas Lotterer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Fri, Jul 23, 2004, Alexander Belck wrote: > > Alex, > > > How should I proceed to upgrade all packages [from 2.0] to the > > equivalent of release 2.1 ? > > > my approach manually upgrading a instance from 2.0 to 2.1 is: > > - read and understand the release notes [1] :-) > > - backup the instance, especially the etc, share and var directories. > > - make sure there's plenty of hard disk space available. > > - download and upgrade the "bootstrap" openpkg package. > > - upgrade/install make, binutils, gcc, perl and openpkg-tools packages. > Assumed you're lucky with the gcc default options, which is likely > to be the case, these steps can be automated by running "openpkg rpm > install openpkg-tools".
