Summary: 0003702: pkgutil should upgrade cswclassutils before installing other packages
Description: I just tried to install CSWstunnel from testing, which has a dependency on CSWcswclassutils. CSWcswclassutils was already installed on the system, but not the most recent one, so pkgutil offered to install stunnel and upgrade cswclassutils.

Instead of upgrading cswclassutils first (which i would have expected as it is a dependency of stunnel) it went on to install stunnel first. Is this a multi-repository issue? It would be good to have pkgutil install all dependencies first before installing dependent packages no matter what. Especially cswclassutils as dependent packages might make use of recent cswclassutils features.

# pkgutil -t http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/testing [^] -i stunnel

If I made a dime on pkgutil I would have to start paying you for beta testing! :-)

I see what you mean, if stunnel made use of any new features compared to the one you had installed it would have failed. Even more interesting is to know for sure it would have installed cswclassutils first if you didn't have it at all..?!

I'll do some testing of my own and maybe come up with a special case for cswclassutils.

I have taken a look at this and made a small change to how the packages to be downloaded/installed/upgraded are ordered. As far as I can see no special case for cswclassutils is needed now. Please try r56:

http://pkgutil.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pkgutil/trunk/pkgutil?revision=56 [^]

It also contains a fix for 0003701 (r55).
