The OpenPKG project released version 2.5 of their unique RPM-based cross-platform multi-instance Unix software packaging facility.

The OpenPKG project released version 2.5 of their unique RPM-based cross-platform multi-instance Unix software packaging facility. OpenPKG 2.5 consists of 579 selected (from a pool of over 900) packages which include latest versions of all popular Unix server software. All software is carefully packaged for easy deployment on 19 different Unix platforms, including FreeBSD 4.11/5.4/6.0/7.0, NetBSD 2.0.2, Debian GNU/Linux 3.1, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, Fedora Core 4, SUSE Linux 9.3/10.0, Mandriva Linux 10.2 and Sun Solaris 8/9/10. The major technical efforts for this release were spent on migrating to the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) version 4.0, further improving the Solaris 10 support and adding full support for the new FreeBSD 6.0 and SUSE 10.0 platforms.
