Packages are updated whenever I manually run the "nightly" autobuild
script; this is *typically* done when I think the GIT tree is in a usable
state and that the resultant packages should work.  This should be
automated to run every night (hence the name), but the TDE archive grew
too large for that to be feasible some time ago.  I am working on
upgrading the build system to provide a true nightly build, but this is
slow work due to TDE's almost nonexistent financial support. ;-)
