Re: [orca-list] rersion of orca master

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

It does install latest orca master freom git, and there's a prefix line in the PKGBUILD file. 
HeAmir has been installing stable from repo, has nothing in local, but should be able to modify 
the prefix line
but this will make the master version install to local giving it priority by default, and it 
conflicts with the stable orca and thus will uninstall it. 
I recommended to just keep 
a backup of stable and reinstall it if he ever does not like how master is working. As long 
as the package is available locally it will install quickly, and similarly keep the tarball 
created by his AYR helper, packer, yaorut, or whatever similarly ready to reinstall so he 
does not have to wait to recompile. 
Master changes so often however that I'd want to script the saving of the tarball for master, 
or actually just make a bash_alias, e.g. 
alias ogb="mv ~/orca-backs/orca-git*tar.xz  ~/orca-backs/orca-git*tar.xz.old && cp 
/tmp/packerbuild-1000/orca-git/orca-git/orca-git-*any.tar.xz ~/orca-backs/
I put the whole alias on one line, but you might want or need to use a backslash to put it in to your aliases 
file, or remove the && and put it in to a script to run after installing a new orca-master. 
You could put in a couple more lines to remove old orca-git packages checking them by age if you go the 
scripting route.
Double check spelling as I typed quickly and did not proof read or test the example alias.
