If you want to upgrade an existing installation, you will be better +# served using the pkgtools directly. Here's how to upgrade all the packages in +# this series: +# +# upgradepkg *.t?z (upgrades already installed packages) +# installpkg *.t?z (installs all packages, to make sure new ones are installed) +# +# If you upgrade a series like this, afterwards you might need to merge over any +# required changes in the new config files, which will have the suffix .new. +# These can be found like this: +# +# find / -name "*.new" +# +# OK, on with the show!
