| How do I upgrade the packages on my server? |
| Answer |
On the command line, as root, cd to /home1/ftp/pub/. If you do a ls
there you will see directories named slack?? where ?? is
our internal version indicator. You can do a cat /etc/slackware-version
to figure out what version of slackware you are running.
Then if you cd into the corresponding slack??/kattare directory
and do a ls you will see a listing of all of the available
custom Kattare packages. From there you can either upgrade all
of the packages using the ./upgrade-packages script or you
can upgrade individual packages by doing an upgradepkg --install-new
<package-name>.tgz.
Kattare routinely updates the packages available in that directory
as new software is released and bugfixes come out. If you would
like to be notified whenever a new package is available, send an
email to support@kattare.com and we'll add your address to our
mail list. Note that this can be fairly frequent.
