I am sorry for being such a burden. I was able to update using subversion and build on our Linux machine. I was having a different issue with File->Import->Spice Decks..., but I was able to determine the problem. There was a space in the folder name, which would throw a null pointer exception although I was able to select the folder appropriately.
I appreciate your assistance!
