Installer has lots of overlap updates.. anyway to remove it?

**hidehide** · 12-04-2007 02:42 AM

I have installed quite a lot of source..
Since then, there are many overlap updates.. like Im using itoogle 1.0.5 version, the update shows there is a 1.0.3..
I can stand it at first, but now, there are 8 updates in there..
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
Thanks!

iFace the same problem.. I think Installer should check the app date not only change on the version number

Looks like you've got several source's repositories with different versions of same apps.
You can't avoid it, until they are synchronised.

I've got the same problem with weDict.
I installed the version 0.6.1 from "WeiPhone" repository but "Ste Packaging" repository still proposes me the version 0.5 as an update

It would be nice if installer app acted like apt-get, only showing the latest version of a package, from whatever repo has the latest version. All the other repos would not show their version then.

I have weDict 0.5 and iFolitaire 0.5 in update and already I have installed higher versions of these apps.

installer.app is a giant piece of crap, yet, I see nullriver is putting every effort possible to make it better.

I hope they will implant a system so that, if it is from the same author, it will only show the latest version.. and if it is from a different author, its not going to show in the update..
Its kinda annoying,..8 updates.. but they are not..

Dev, do something ... please

yes... I already have the same problem.... I tried removing the "oldest" source.... and of course works... the update doesn't appear anymore... but as soon I write again the repository... the "issue" appear again.

so, is a problem with the INSTALLER... they need check name program, author and versions.... I hope nullriver fix it soon.
