Hi, @JohnGurin.

Brief:

That issue is out of scope of this package. Settings view is provided by settings-view package.

Cause:

I've grepped its sources a bit and it seems, that package details view only gets updated, when package is installed or updated from registry.

As settings-view doesn't expose any API, there's no clean way to update things manually from outside.

You might suggest a feature request to explicitly track and update packages under development, when they get reactivated.

FYI:

Chances are you already know it, but just in case:

As settings-view puts configs to the "~/.atom/config.cson", you may as well edit it directly -- this file is being watched, so changes will instantly become live. See here for details.

And, finally, if you really want to get updated settings-view, you can disable and then enable settings-view package, it will rebuild views using new metadata.
