Updated Kindle books

[tadas]

Every so often, Amazon will send me a revised copy of a book I'd purchased in the past, due to corrections or other changes. Is there a way I can tell Calibre to replace my existing copy rather than create a second entry for the book? When I get one of these, I currently have to manually delete the matching library entry before importing the revised book.

Drop the update into the Details pane of the main window OR the formats section in the MDE

this will replace the format (but not do the DRM thingy)
