BUGS¶
gpt-install currently does not honor static build numbers. Instead it
will replace any pgm_static package that is the same version or older. For
example:
gpt-install -force foo-2.1-2-gcc32-pgm_static.tar.gz
foo-1.1-5-gcc32-pgm_static will be replaced.
foo-2.1-1-gcc32-pgm_static will be replaced.
foo-2.1-5-gcc32-pgm_static will be replaced.
foo-2.2-1-gcc32-pgm_static will not be replaced.
foo-2.1-gcc32-pgm will not be replaced.
