Since OSCAR is an agregate project with our own release cycle, we tend
to end up lagged behind the current verions of the individual packages
by a bit.  Depending on the release cycle of the project, and bad
timing we occasionally end up farther behind than is neccesarily a
good idea.  There are also sometimes stability issues between specific
package versions and OSCAR itself, but I think in this case its just a
release lag issue.

We have been trying to stabilize the OSCAR 5.0 release for a couple
months now, so we have frozen package upgrades unless there are
unresolvable bugs between the current version and OSCAR.

If you would like to do so, you should be able to update a local
repository to the current version of the package rpm for your
particular distro and, possibly with a bit of fiddling with the OSCAR
package internals, you should be able to get the package to use the
latest torque rpm instead of the current OSCAR version.

I don't think updating torque is likely to cause any problems with
OSCAR itself, but its really hard to tell without trying it.
