[csw-users] updating packages

[Josh Berry]

Just to add, if you do a:

	pkg-get -U
	pkg-get -a | grep package_name

then it will tell you what the latest release based on the catalogue you
have downloaded is. If the version there is not the one you want then
you are not using the right mirror (stable, testing etc.)
