To upgrade automatically, use « MandrakeUpdate ». If you want to upgrade
manually, download the updated package from one of our FTP server mirrors
and uprade with "rpm -Uvh package_name". All mirrors are listed on
http://www.mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3. Updated packages are available in the
"updates/" directory.
For example, if you are looking for an updated RPM package for Mandrake 7.1,
look for it in: updates/7.1/RPMS/
Notes:
- We give the md5 sum for each package. It lets you check the integrity of
the downloaded package by running the md5sum command on the package
("md5sum package.rpm").
- You generally do not need to download the source package with a .src.rpm
suffix
- All the updated packages are listed on the website on
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/fupdates.php3
