Hmm, would it be a valid work around for things like divascheme
to make something like this on .plt-scheme/plt-prefs.ss for instance

//pseudo code
if diva-is-not-installed
 install diva
 do-nothing

Anyone tried this?

Generally, the planet packages should install themselves when you
require the libraries. But if you are installing a package only
because it adds a new drscheme tool (say) instead of requiring it in
one of your programs, then you'll have to run the planet commandline
tool yourself.

Hey there

I'm using DrScheme version 4.2 under ubuntu 9.04, and recently I've tried to
update to version 4.2.2.
Everything went ok, except for my planet packages, that didn't follow the
update (I'm just using Diva and
SICP language packages, but I image it is a pattern). Is there some way to
simply make the packages work
in the new version, without having to install them all again?

Thanks for the attention.
