• reload user daemon after installation of related program

   systemctl --user daemon-reload

• restart the user service

Note:

Regarding the versioning, when you build the packages (using mb2) you can specify the -x flag to use the version from the git tag rather than the .spec file.  Alternatively, you can manually bump the version in the .spec file prior to building your packages, to ensure that the version you build is higher than the version installed on the device. As a final alternative, you can install packages with "rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps *rpm" to ignore package and version dependency requirements (beware, this can cause issues if you aren't sure that your packages are binary compatible, etc).
