a/glibc-solibs-2.27-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
a/pkgtools-15.0-noarch-16.txz: Rebuilt.
upgradepkg: clean up --help output and add options
upgradepkg: accept -help option (not just --help)
upgradepkg: don't omit error messages in --terse mode
upgradepkg: only print missing new package in old%new mode
upgradepkg.8: move information about config file handling from BUGS to the
DESCRIPTION section
Thanks to Xsane.
ap/vim-8.1.0039-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
l/glibc-2.27-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
When installing the package, remove old versions of the glibc shared
libraries. In addition to eliminating residue on the system from old
package versions, this change will make it possible in the future to
revert to older glibc packages using upgradepkg.
l/glibc-i18n-2.27-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
l/glibc-profile-2.27-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
n/gnupg2-2.2.8-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
Sanitize the diagnostic output of the original file name in verbose mode.
By using a made up file name in the message it was possible to fake status
messages. Using this technique it was for example possible to fake the
verification status of a signed mail.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B upgradepkg
|
|
upgrades a Slackware package from an older version to a
|
|
newer one. It does this by
|
|
.B INSTALLING
|
|
the new package onto the system, and then
|
|
.B REMOVING
|
|
any files from the old package that aren't in the new package.
|
|
If the old and new packages have the same name, a single argument is all that
|
|
is required. If the packages have different names, supply the name of the
|
|
old package followed by a percent symbol (%), then the name of the new package.
|
|
Do not add any extra whitespace between pairs of old/new package names.
|
|
.P
|
|
Before upgrading a package, save any configuration files (such as in /etc)
|
|
that you wish to keep. Sometimes these will be preserved, but it depends on
|
|
the package structure. If you want to force new versions of the config files
|
|
to be installed, remove the old ones manually prior to running upgradepkg.
|
|
.P
|
|
If upgradepkg finds more than one installed package matching the old package's
|
|
name, it will remove them all.
|
|
.TP
|
|
To upgrade in a directory other than / (such as /mnt):
|
|
.TP
|
|
ROOT=/mnt upgradepkg package.txz (or .tbz, .tgz, .tlz)
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--dry-run
|
|
Output a report about which packages would be installed or upgraded
|
|
but don't actually perform the upgrades.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--install-new
|
|
Normally upgradepkg only upgrades packages that are already installed on the system, and
|
|
will skip any packages that do not already have a version installed.
|
|
If
|
|
.B --install-new
|
|
is specified, the behavior is modified to install new packages in addition to upgrading
|
|
existing ones.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--reinstall
|
|
Upgradepkg usually skips packages if the exact same package
|
|
(matching name, version, arch, and build number) is already installed on the system.
|
|
Use the --reinstall option if you want to upgrade all packages even if the same
|
|
version is already installed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--terse
|
|
Upgrade the package displaying only a single description line to stdout.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--terselength <length>
|
|
Maximum line length of --terse mode output. Default is the number of terminal columns.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--verbose
|
|
Show all the gory details of the upgrade.
