[racket-dev] Package Update Fails?

I had installed Stephen's `graph' package. Then, he pushed a new
version, and I tried updating my install. Here's the error I got:


    stamourv at ahuntsic:plt$ raco pkg update graph
    Inferred package scope: /home/stamourv/src/plt/racket/share/pkgs

    The following uninstalled packages are listed as dependencies of graph:

    raco pkg update: cannot find package on catalogs
      package: base


At that point, I tried removing it and reinstalling it. I got this
error:


    stamourv at ahuntsic:plt$ raco pkg remove graph
    Inferred package scope: /home/stamourv/src/plt/racket/share/pkgs
    Removing graph

That directory did exist, though. At that point, the package was not
listed as installed anymore, but I couldn't install it either:

Despite that error, the package was listed as being installed, but it
wouldn't work.

I ended up removing the package directory and removing the link (using
raco link). After that, I was finally able to reinstall the package, and
now everything works.

The old version did not have an `info.rkt' file, but the new one does. I
don't know if that makes any difference.
