My extras-devel repo is working fine, and the command 'nitdroid-installer --version' yeilds nothing.

When I try 'apt-get install nitdroid-installer' (after updating) I just get "nitdroid-installer is already the newest version".
Which is of course, very helpful

Suggestions? (or am I in the wrong thread for reporting this?)
Thats because the auto installer is a clever piece of coding. You dont need to redownload the installer everytime, as before it downloads any NITDroid files, it downloads a manifest that tells it exactly what it needs to download and riun. The manifest file gets changed when an update comes out so really the only way to know of an update is when it's mentioned on a forum. You then just run the installer and you get a nice new version of NITDroid.

The best way to know of updates is on the NITDroid forum as little updates tend to get burried in long threads here.
