@end table
+If for some reason you don't want to update to the latest version,
+you can update to a specific version by passing a package specification.
+However, not all updaters support this.
+
+@example
+$ guix refresh trytond-party
+gnu/packages/tryton.scm:2101:13: trytond-party would be upgraded from 6.2.0 to 6.4.0
+$ guix refresh -u trytond-party@@6.2.1
+@dots{}
+gnu/packages/tryton.scm:2101:13: trytond-party: updating from version 6.2.0 to version 6.2.1...
+@dots{}
+@end example
+
Sometimes the upstream name differs from the package name used in Guix,
and @command{guix refresh} needs a little help. Most updaters honor the
@code{upstream-name} property in package definitions, which can be used
