Re: [orca-list] Ubuntu PPA with daily builds of Orca

[Christopher Chaltain <chaltain gmail com>]

Please pardon my ignorance, but if I run the commands:

> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dusek/gnome-orca-daily
> sudo apt-get update
> sudo apt-get upgrade

wouldn't the last command actually upgrade every package on my system?
could I run something like

$ sudo apt-get install gnome-orca

to just update Orca?

I apologize if this is a stupid question, and I hope my ignorance will
be forgiven!
