Only if the diff contains something from the package you modified. The full package wouldn't get reverted, you'd have inconsistency in the files that belong to the package that were changed. > If I understand it correctly, I always have to reinstall the package > but I do not have to do any cleanup work like reverting to read-only > mode. Please correct me if I'm wrong. ;) It's the other way around, if you install a package manually you have to cleanup before updating or fall into a potentially broken system (if you know what you are modifying the risk is a lot lower) -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
