flatpak Developer Alexander Larsson alexl@redhat.com flatpak update 1 flatpak-update Update a runtime flatpak update OPTION NAME BRANCH Updates an application or runtime. NAME is the name of an installed application or runtime. Optionally, BRANCH can be specified to update a specific branch, otherwise all installed branches are updated. If no NAME is given, then everything installed is updated. By default this looks for both installed applications and runtimes, but you can limit this by using the --app or --runtime option. Normally, this command updates the application to the tip of its branch. But it is possible to check out another commit, with the --commit option. Note that updating a is different from installing a different branch, and runtime updates are expected to keep strict compatibility. If an application update does cause a problem, it is possible to go back to the previous version, with the --commit option. Unless overridden with the --user option, this command updates a system-wide installation. The following options are understood: -h --help Show help options and exit. --user Update a per-user installation. --system Update a system-wide installation. --arch=ARCH The architecture to update for. --subpath=PATH Install only a subpath of the ref. This is mainly used to install a subset of locales. This can be added multiple times to install multiple subpaths. If this is not specified the subpaths specified at install time are reused. --commit=COMMIT Update to this commit, instead of the tip of the branch. --no-deploy Download the latest version, but don't deploy it. --no-pull Don't download the latest version, deploy it whatever is locally availiable. --app Only look for an app with the given name. --runtime Only look for an runtime with the given name. -v --verbose Print debug information during command processing. --version Print version information and exit. $ flatpak --user update org.gnome.GEdit flatpak1, flatpak-install-app1, flatpak-list-apps1
