Well, if you are referring to the note that says something about
if you are "reinstalling" (it's the only thing I can see on that
page that even comes remotely close to this discussion), then
technically, "reinstalling" would be to "install again", whereas
I was referring to folks that "update" a package. :-)

Anyway, I'll probably bow out of the discussion at this point,
as it is now off-topic, and there is no real point of the content
of the discussion any longer.
