# Examples
|
|
|
|
* Upgrade all packages that were installed using a mutable flake
|
|
reference:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix profile upgrade '.*'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Upgrade a specific package:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix profile upgrade packages.x86_64-linux.hello
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Upgrade a specific profile element by number:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix profile list
|
|
0 flake:nixpkgs#legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.spotify …
|
|
|
|
# nix profile upgrade 0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Description
|
|
|
|
This command upgrades a previously installed package in a Nix profile,
|
|
by fetching and evaluating the latest version of the flake from which
|
|
the package was installed.
|
|
|
|
> **Warning**
|
|
>
|
|
> This only works if you used a *mutable* flake reference at
|
|
> installation time, e.g. `nixpkgs#hello`. It does not work if you
|
|
> used an *immutable* flake reference
|
|
> (e.g. `github:NixOS/nixpkgs/13d0c311e3ae923a00f734b43fd1d35b47d8943a#hello`),
|
|
> since in that case the "latest version" is always the same.
