When upgrading to Hogfather, I had to upgrade my existing plugins as well such as hidden and folded, this so that they are compatible with hogfather. Whats the best way to manually upgrade them?
For instance the approach I took was:
tar zxvf hidden-plugin.tgz
'cp' -af hidden-plugin/* /lib/plugins/hidden/
The plugins work. However I noticed that the meta data is incorrect such as 'your last update', 'compatible with'.
Is there another approach to upgrading manually? Shall I remove the plugins and install them again instead of overwriting the old files with the new files?
