   I download zipped wp trunk from link above.
   I then installed it on xampp.

   Later on I wanted to upgrade to the latest normal version of wp.
   But I can't.

   The upgrade will always be pulling from trunk only.
   (it shows in admin screen as nightlybuild )

   Questions.

   Is this expected behavior ?
   Is there anything I could do to upgrade to normal version ?

   Thanks for any help!

   I believe that's expected, since you shouldn't downgrade by accident :)

   Manually download the normal version and apply the files by hand. That'll kick you back over.

   @Ipstenu thank you and i think that makes sense
   actually it's what i'm about to do now.

   but still

   i wonder how wp tells the upgrade system that "Hello wp.org ! I'm a trunk version - so get me the upgrade from trunk now !"

   i mean, there must be a setting in db record that if i just go in and change the value from 'trunk' to 'normal' ( something like that ) then it can just upgrade to normal version.

   am i right on this ?

   Yeah, but I'm damned if I can remember what :/ I don't think it's the DB, it MAY just be the version.php file.

   @Ipstenu thanks again. it works !

   i opened wp-includes/version.php

   and change $wp_version = '3.2 bleeding';
   to this $wp_version = '3.1';

   then i login and see the update showing 1
   clicked on that and do the core update, this time the system is updated to latest normal version now.

   :)
