no, that shouldn't be required.  you're right that an important
point i didn't mention was to update the wrap software, if required,
as mentioned on the plan 9 update page.

if that was the result of a second run, it looks reasonable to me,
assuming you've configured cpurc, termrc, /mail/lib/rewrite and reconfigured pccpudisk etc,
so that `locally updated' is correct.

one other point is that it can be helpful to do
	9fs boot
	install/inst -r /n/boot ...
to avoid problems with directories such as /fd, /mail/fs, /mnt/* which can
have things mounted on them (and will refuse wstat).

>>and then, obviously, all the other updates fail.

that's less obvious.  what are those diagnostics (briefly)?

I installed a later copy of wrap, presuming it would be backwards
compatible. Was that a mistake?

%wrap/inst /tmp/07291014.9gz

console)
