i was testing the new source code packages, and i did not pay enough
attention when upgrading. after doing a
pkgutil -t http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/testing -i subversion
pkgutil -t http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/testing -i mercurial
subversion was insisting on finding /opt/csw/lib/libldap-2.3.so.0,
while only /opt/csw/lib/libldap-2.4.so.0 was available. somehow
openldap got upgraded to
openldap_rt-2.4.16,REV=2009.06.29-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz from
testing.
i tried to remove it or downgrade it, but it did not work with
pkgutil, and pkg-get.
# pkgutil -r CSWoldaprt
Parsing catalog, may take a while...
Looking at installed CSW packages...
Examining dependencies for:
CSWoldaprt (in use)
CSWlibnet (in use)
CSWsasl (in use)
CSWossl (remove)
CSWbdb4 (remove)
CSWossldevel (remove)
CSWosslutils (remove)
CSWosslrt (in use)
CSWcacertificates (remove)
CSWcswclassutils (in use)
CSWcommon (in use)
5 packages to remove. Do you want to continue? [Y,n]
# pkg-get -r CSWoldaprt
WARNING: the remove option is not very intelligent.
If there are multiple versions of a package with the same
PKG style name, it will remove the first one it can
(will continue in 5 seconds)
Starting remove operations now...
ERROR: no matching SysV PKG found.
CSWoldaprt CSWoldaprt
(either you mistyped it, or you need to updatecatalog, or
it isnt available for your OSREV yet)
then i used pkgrm and pkgutil -u to install it again and it worked.
so i wonder:
* why oldap gets upgraded
* how to remove / downgrade packages
