The way I always went when I wanted to make sure I was up to date was to change the cvs-sourceforge definition in sources.conf to point to my local (up to date) cvs checkout (the skeleton for that change is already in conf/sources, commented out), remove conf/installed and everything in source/, build/ and staging/ and then run ./buildtool.pl build buildenv [+whatever else packages one wants] I'm not aware of a more efficient way to do that.
