Keep a copy of everything in that directory which you installed, then let the "update bridge" code re-install it all when it is re-installing the jailbreak.
That might take a rather long time, so some sort of animation to show the device is still running. . . .
Maybe have the tree slowly fall over and crush that guy reading a book for the past ten years.  |
I was thinking about this the other day, so
to this idea.
Related question: Is there a 'package manger' for kindle that would be able to checks for updates, and download & install the new packages? If so this might be a good place to plumb in a re-install option for already installed packages. In my ideal world this 'package manager' would read it's meta-data from the first post in a forum thread (eg: this thread, or NiLuJe's snapshot's thread), detect updates (attachments or links to downloads) and offer to download and install them.
