[SOLVED] Question about Warzone-SVN revision upgrade method

Hi all,

I have installed warzone-svn from AUR using yaourt. My question is simple, how do I upgrade when the next revision in svn repository is out?

Do I upgrade using

# yaourt -Syu

or is there something else i will have to do?

Regards,
J0sh

check man yaourt for  yaourt -Su --devel

Re: [SOLVED] Question about Warzone-SVN revision upgrade method

Just a useful note for anyone else interested in this thread. Using the above mentioned solution works, but it is slower as the building takes place in /tmp directory by default. This means that everytime you attempt to upgrade your revision, all the files will be downloaded all over again and saved somewhere in /tmp, and these files will be purged when your build is completed.

To make building much faster, the solution would be to have all the files downloaded in another directory, so that yaourt does not purge all the files used for building, and only downloads any changed files. Have a look at this topic on the forum for what sort of directory to create.
