[arm-allstar] pacman and installed packages

[Fred Hillhouse]

The package I am interested in is:
https://github.com/wb2osz/direwolf/releases/tag/1.5-beta
New Features: PTT using GPIO pin of CM108/CM119 (e.g. DMK URI, RB-USB RIM),
Linux only.

Maybe this has been added and I just don't know how to find/use it.
The response running Direwolf:
	[root at AllStar ~]# direwolf
	Dire Wolf version 1.4

I have tried a few things based on what I find in pacman documentation for
updating, syncing, etc. to no avail.

I hate to ask for this since it makes me feel like a squeaky wheel. Plus, I
feel I should learn how to update from release 1.4 to 1.5-beta or go back if
a new DEV isn't working correctly.

If I could update/revert then it places no load on your team when your
primary goal is to support Allstar.

Best regards,
Fred N7FMH

Fred,

 We maintain the repository for ALL packages and thus the versions are
determined by us. We try to keep packages updated but it is unlikely we
would have the latest and greatest of everything. If you have a specific
need for an updated package and it would benefit all please let us know what
package it is and we can include it if possible. You can download and
compile a package on your own but doing so might require other dependencies
that might not be there and could lead to possible problems.

What is the package that needs updating?
