It was another bug in the simple text parser, the XML parser worked fine. I have uploaded openpkg-tool-20030215-20030215 to the ftp server. However, with _all_ src RPMs from 1.2 (excluding PLUS) you will still get one _correct_ ambiguity: # ambigous sources for MTA # 0: postfix-2.0.2-1.2.0 = ./postfix-2.0.2-1.2.0.src.rpm # 1: ssmtp-2.48-1.2.0 = ./ssmtp-2.48-1.2.0.src.rpm The '-A' option selects all targets including the virtual target MTA. Also, there are already some important updates in UPD/ and more to come in the next days. > Perhaps I'm not doing this right?

If you need to pick a package with different build options you'd have multiple packages of the same name (even the same filename). IMHO it is easier to build binaries on demand. You may save the binary RPMs to some repository, build a second index there and direct 'openpkg build' to fetch the binary RPMs for installing a second or third machine. By using indirect indexes you make 'openpkg build' aware of multiple indexes (see ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/1.2/00INDEX.rdf for an example).
