Ticket #15808, comment 4
initial v1 1 Upgrading using the Installer does not work. The Installer promises to remove all files from the system directory (except for packages), but in reality does not do this. This leads to the state where all the packages have been copied, but they are not actually activated.1 Upgrading using the Installer does not work. The Installer promises to remove all files from the system directory (except for settings), but in reality does not do this. This leads to the state where all the packages have been copied, but they are not actually activated. 2 2 3 3 Pulkomandy suggested on the haiku-i18n mailing list that method of upgrade should not be supported, with an alternative being to upgrade an existing system using pkgman with the Installation medium as a source. That might be a better approach, as the current approach (if it works correctly) is very much a clean install (blowing away all installed packages that are not included on the installation medium).
