No upgrade icons

[zkab]

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?

@daddygo 2.6.0

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.

@patch OK ... thanks

@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

@johnpoz I can only see it at bottom of the screen ...
But now I understand how it works

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.

@bmeeks OK ... I understand
