I am running kusu from a few days ago:
[root@master ~]# cat /etc/kusu-release
Kusu "Kramat" 1.0 (build 3536)

Now I wanted to update to the latest kusu 1.0 build (kusu-1.0-20081013-3536.centos-5.x86_64.iso)

Sadly I am not allowed to:
[root@master ~]# kitops --add -m kusu-1.0-20081013-3536.centos-5.x86_64.iso
/tmp/kitopsRUkK8l/base(base): Kit 'base-1.0-noarch' already installed

The version number should be extended or another solution found for users trying to follow daily builds.

Currently the base kit is not a removable kit and is flagged as such in the kits table of the database. This is a problem that we are looking to address. The issue is that the base kit itself contains all the apps that comprise the kusu infrastructure and performing upgrades is not straightforward.

For now, the daily builds are bootable media containing the base kit and need to be installed on a bare metal systems. A straightforward upgrade path is not available, as you have attempted.

We will be making additional kits available at a later date. Following the daily builds of the addon kits will be a simple affair with kitops.

One possible change for kitops is to -Uvh the kit rpm, instead of -ivh:

[root@master tmp]# rpm -q rrdtool
package rrdtool is not installed
[root@master tmp]# rpm -Uvh rrdtool-1.2.27-3.el5.i386.rpm
warning: rrdtool-1.2.27-3.el5.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 217521f6
