Re: [Gusdev-gusdev] Building GUS on a previous installation

[Sucheta T. <su...@vb...>]

Thanks Pablo,

I have infact rebuild the objects and did not see any anomalies so far
with the data, and not even to the sequences. The only weirdness I
observed was the important plugin GBParser stopped functioning, but I
fixed it, so things are OK now. I have not however tried with the updated
version of the source from the cvs.

One thing I may like to ask the forum is in case you build an older
version of GUS it asks you to update the plugin with

GUS +update ...

But when you do update it says its already registered. I have adopted a
method which seems not the right way to do. I simply change the CVS
version and do an update.

I will appreciate if any one can answer an elegant way to do this.

Thanks

Sucheta
