For the IPS book, we have several more terms that need clarifying. Please review the following definitions and let us know if you can help clarify.
o Package update A limited installation of package files. Only those files that have been modified are installed. If files have been removed from the package that is to be installed, those same files are removed from the package that is being updated. o Preferred repository: A default repository that is the source for packages. If a user does not explicitly specify a repository, the preferred authority is chosen as the source for packages. o Relocatable package 1. The Application Packaging Guide has this definition, but we felt that this definition was too difficult to understand. A package object defined in a prototype file with a relative path name 2. For IPS, can the below definition be used instead? A package that enables a user to specify where to install that package. Thanks for your help.
