Subject: How to update core extensions (Gnus)?
Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2015 07:23:56 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wq2z610j.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Contrary to my long-held belief in the stagnation of the Gnus codebase (I was under the impression it had been untouched since 2009), Gnus has been revived and I want to implement changes that are newer than my current 25.0.5 emacs version. But it looks from my package manager that Gnus isn't something that I can, for instance, grab from Melpa. What's the best practice for updating a core package like this? Can I clone http://git.gnus.org/gnus.git and cause emacs to respect the clone over the built-in? Should I?
