I finally upgraded to gcc--3.2.2 (from gcc--3.2) and realized that I needed
to upgrade gcc-wrapper as well.
I edited my team's package/gcc-wrapper.xml file to show the new version
number in two places. Then I wondered how to deploy the change.
First I tried
ark package reveal --verbose gcc-wrapper
but nothing happened. Ark knew that it had previously revealed this
package.
I found a clue in the automount-maps package description on "Sidai team: the
`*-config' packages" page of the Ark web site:
http://ark.sourceforge.net/sidai-config-pkgs.html. It said,
When we make changes to the maps, we run
sidai/package-utils/ark-invasive automount-maps
to re-do things.
Snooping around, I found this additional guidance on the "Sidai team: notes
on booting ARK stuff" web page: http://ark.sourceforge.net/ark-boot.html.
It said,
ToDo: say something about `ark-invasive' ...?
Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained. After examining ark-invasive and
ark-redo in the sidai/package-utils directory, I tried
ark-invasive gcc-wrapper
Ark cleaned out the old version and installed the new. The only substantive
change was the gcc version number, 3.2.2, in the file
/our/lib/sidai-wrapper/default-gcc.
Did I overlook some easier way to update the version number in that file?
