Yeah I know -
My question was, HOW do I make pkg_add auto-choose the newest (or just
any) version really?
E.g. on 5.9, what arguments do you pass to "pkg_add" for "automake", so
that it will choose version 1.15, or anyhow just any version without
asking for interactive user confirmation bc. I don't care?

Subject: How make "pkg_add" auto-choose some package version for me
when
same package is available in more versions?
At least on 5.8, neither -z nor -I do it, and those are the only
arguments that give any hint of containing such a feature
(http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man1/pkg_add.1).
Is this feature supposed to be included in "pkg_add" or is a user(me)
refered to implement some own script?
Sometimes you just want a package and don't care about which version
it
is.
Thanks!
