User-configurable adjustments are in the xml files. So you should make sure you keep a backup.
The program files vcontrold and vclient can be simply replaced with a newer version (either by manual replacement, make install
or by installing a newer deb package).
During installation, /usr/share/doc/vcontrold gets written, so don't use this location to store your edited configs (wouldn't be the right place anyway).
The provided deb packages are dead-simple (just installing the plain files) and provide no means of a start-stop procedure for the daemon, or taking care of config locations or edits.
You need to restart the vcontrold daemon after having updated/changed its binary.
I'm new to this stuff and glad to have vcontrold running but is there a way to update vcontrold easily without loosing all the adjustments?
