Re: [galaxy-dev] FreeBayes bug - update to a toolshed tool wrapper

Hi Lance, This has to do with the way that the updating currently works. Since the migrated version is 0.0.2, the automatic update will only update that particular Tool version (newest version of 0.0.2). To get 0.0.3, you need to install it as a new tool. This way you are able to have both versions installed and available e.g. for having a reproducible rerun functionality. In the latest Galaxy-central / upcoming Galaxy-dist release, only the newest version is shown in the lefthand tool panel. Future enhancements will include allowing the selection of different tool versions from within the tool interface (e.g. allowing the rerun of an older version to use a newer version) and to show and allow updating (installing) new tool versions from the same interface (e.g. 2 to 3).
