      Package Manager / Installed Package for 'openvpn-client-export' tells me that a new version is avaiable.
      How do I upgrade it ... there are only icons for (trash) and (reinstall) in Action column.

        Which base version do you use for pfs? This is the first question...
        2.6?

            Click the upgrade icon (two arrows in the circle) , that will upgrade it. It will be both at the start (left) of the line and at the end (right).

            The reinstall icon is two arrows but they form a rectangle, not a circle. When there is an upgrade available, that icon is hidden and only the upgrade icon shows.

                I agree the screen is a bit confusing.

                • The bottom of the screen is actually a legend showing all possible messages

                • When an update is available for a package the message is shown adjacent to the particular package for which there is an update.

                • The package manager is actually showing you there is no update for the one package you have installed.

                    @zkab Where are you seeing that update is available? Just the legend?

                    Here is a package that has an update.

                    See how its name is now "yellow" and notice the icons are the update icon

                        The information at the bottom (where you have circled the yellow text) is a legend. It tells you what the various icons mean when displayed beside an installed package name. And when the displayed icon is yellow in color (what Bootstrap calls "warning" I believe), it means that an update is available for that package.
