Hi All,

We have bos.rte.libpthreads 5.3.0.50, but we need to revert to
5.3.0.41 (see explanation before roasting me please).

I tried,

installp -acF -d ./bos.rte.libpthreads.5.3.0.41

But it tells me this is not a base fileset. Do I have to revert to
the one on the CD first?

----------(optional) ----------

WHAT IDIOT WOULD WANT TO DO THAT ?

Before we knew this issue, to fix a customer problem, we linked a
custom build of one of our binaries on a machine with
bos.rte.libpthreads 5.3.0.50. 5.3.0.50 introduced a new symbol
dependency __pth_init into our binary not present in earlier versions
of bos.rte.libpthreads.

Customer only has 5.3.0.41, and we still have many other customers on
this or earlier. So we need to relink our code against a version of
bos.rte.libpthreads 5.3.0.41 or earlier in order to continue to
provide fixes.

Force installations are only working on base filesets afaik. So
install the base fileset and update to the version you need.
