Hi Bert,

Yes I would not expect the live database to be upgraded in place, and the
procedure that you describe sounds fine to me.

I don't follow your question about the vocabularies. I mentioned in a
previous email that these can be updated using our API, copied again here
for reference:

Those JSON files were not intended to be the official way of updating the
vocabularies. We use them to do the initial database setup, but I did not
even know that you had your own copy of them in the RPM. However, as all of
this information is stored in the database, it can be updated using the API.

To view or update vocabularies, see:
http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.8/apiv3.html#ckan.logic.action.get.vocabulary_list
http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.8/apiv3.html#ckan.logic.action.get.vocabulary_show
http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.8/apiv3.html#ckan.logic.action.create.vocabulary_create
http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.8/apiv3.html#ckan.logic.action.update.vocabulary_update

To view or update translations, see:
http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.8/apiv3.html#ckan.logic.action.get.term_translation_show
http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.8/apiv3.html#ckan.logic.action.update.term_translation_update_many

I am also not sure what you mean here, are you asking how the PO can update
the vocabulary translations? This would be the same as the answer above,
using the API.

Regards,
John
