Unfortunately I have a virtual production machine behind a proxy that not permit the automatic download of updates, there's no way to bypass.
At the moment the only way to update TKLAMP stuff is shutdown the server, copy the entire VM, take it to my house, install it on my VMWare workstation, upgrading it and finally put again in production ESX environment.. it's not good at all.
I've been using a couple virtual appliances (issue tracking/roundup, version control/svn) for some months and am very happy with both of them. AFAIU, all packages installed are Debian stable. I'm curious about the upgrading policy of the virtual appliances:
Does the TK instance updates automatically as soon as new version of the packages are released or is this left to us, the users?
