You can either download the whole new set download only the changed
files from
http://files.kolab.org/server/development-2.2/20100629-since-20091217/ix86-debian5.0/
(just make sure you replace existing files which have the same name)

Then do as like you would install everything, it will know which
packages to upgrade. You don't need to generate your own 00INDEX.rdf.
