  I must have missed this going in.  It's not a great idea to name
  packages with their release characteristics.  That's what the version
  is for.

  For instance, if sunstudioexpress isn't the name of the final package,
  then upgrades from

  pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED],5.11-0.86:20080428T164106Z

  to 

  pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED],5.11-1:...

  are (a) manual by default, and (b) will involve retrieving all of the
  sunstudio files and deleting all of the sunstudioexpress files.   

  (Not picking on the compilers here, but want to point out authors are
  on the wrong path if they start naming their packages "foo-beta" and
  "foo-express", rather than [EMAIL PROTECTED] and then [EMAIL PROTECTED]  One 
for the
  developer's guide.)
