[OS X TeX] Ii2 gwTeX tug.org Feedback Message?

[Alex Hamann]

ok, so in the window which allows you to install and configure your  
gwTeX-package: right beneath the "install&configure" button you will  
see some more buttons, all horizontally aligned: readme / pkg  
properties / subprocess output / pkg contents / activity / report
choose "pkg properties"
now look down to the area in the middle of the window: there are  
three fields. they tell you about the versions of the package in  
three different locations:
	1. the "self package" - this is the package from where you install
	2. the remote location -  which is the one on the server from where  
you get your local copy
	3. the installed version - this is the version which has been  
installed from the "self" files. This is the version you ultimately  
want to update in order to see changes in your texing
next to the "self package" field (look to the right) you see a  
button: "update self from remote". press it and your "self" will be  
updated from the remote package repository. When have done this the  
"self" and the remote will be the same.
NOW you can go on and press "install&configure". i-Installer will  
install the "self-package" and when you are done all three locations  
will have the same version of gwTeX

Good luck...
