Re: How to "upgrade" a dpkg with a .deb



2006/8/29, Matt England <mengland@mengland.net>:
How can one upgrade an installed dpkg with a .deb file, much the same way
one can run:

    rpm -Uhv <new-version-of-package.rpm>

using rpm?  I was hoping for a

    dpkg -u <new-version-of-package.deb>

Any suggestions, tips?


You can install any package using

dpkg -i <package_name>

read the man for more info
