Thanks, I'll try that!

I would never have guessed that, since the package is already
installed... wouldn't it be logical to enhance "update" for that?
Especially in light of a future capability to install several versions
(which was mentioned above).
It would be consistent with rpm behaviour then: install installs the
package, update updates it.
