You might be able to use the package source from trunk to build the Torque 2.x 
OSCAR package via the OPD interface.  I am not sure though.

If you want to install a particular version of Torque from source, it should be 
fine.  OSCAR doesn't depend on Torque for anything but its after install 
testing, and that is likely to work if you set up torque in the same way as 
OSCAR does.  Worst case scenario is that the tests all read as failed.  The 
only tricky part is that you will have to build it on the node image as well, 
if you want to keep things consistent.  If you chroot to the image directory 
and do the same steps you would to set up a node, it should work more or less 
as expected, though generally you get some nasty warnings because of the funny 
environment. 

Remember to build maui support into Torque if you want to continue to more than 
FIFO scheduling available.

I would use the oscar setup scripts from trunk as a todo list for the setup if 
I was going to do it by hand.

        Because my platform is IA64, I am running OSCAR 4.2.1, and cannot 
upgrade to 5.0.  The version of Torque in 4.2.1 is 1.2.0p5-2, which is just 
crazy old.  I would like to get my cluster up to version 2.x to take advantage 
of some features in 2.x that aren't in 1.2, but I don't know if this is 
possible. 
        
        Would it break a lot of things to upgrade just Torque on my system?  Is 
this something that plugs in relatively generically to the OSCAR framework, or 
is it really tightly integrated, such that I can't upgrade on my own? 
        
        Thanks,
