From 56ce44aa805389427bb4d6fd02a49e53d7a33cad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Rifenbark Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2013 09:12:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] dev-manual: merged "updating images" into the "working with packages" The section that talked about IPK-specific information for installing updated packages onto an existing running target system is parse and really needs to be in the section that talks about setting up a package repository. I moved it to the end of that repo section.
