We added a "Recommended Upgrade procedure from any OpenPKG-2.x-RELEASE" section
today which clearly demonstrates the usability improvements we did recently:
- (simulated) "openpkg build" available immediately after bootstrap
- ability to detect and configure update branch ("openpkg release")
- registry client included ("openpkg register")
- "openpkg build" now supports -Za (rebuild from Zero, all packages)
- "openpkg build" -B option to create run-time tests to do/skip installs
Quick and simplified instructions for Upgrades:
$ openpkg rpm --rebuild openpkg-2.20060622-2.20060622.src.rpm
$ openpkg rpm -Uvh openpkg-2.20060622-2.20060622.*-*-*.rpm
$ openpkg rpm -e openpkg-tools openpkg-registry
$ openpkg register --mode=post [EMAIL PROTECTED]
$ openpkg build openpkg-tools | sh
$ openpkg build -ZaKB | sh
