So what does one do if they need a port/package that is available for a previous release but not the latest release? For example, Mysql 4.0 is a package for OBSD 3.8 and I'd like to install Mysql 4.x on OBSD 3.9 or soon to be 4.0 but it seems only Mysql 5.0 is available. What is generally done in a case such as this?
