Subject: bug#44928: guix upgrade command does not accept a list of packages
Date: Sat, 28 Nov 2020 18:51:44 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <-UI20flvic2q9oWvpwg54ddy3XgUEzot8UpZQEMMz14qmhRntjprmW0rTyR1qIYhDbYH_G7eRYum2D3uREcT0lnXP6zdLxgC7S3M_v5VIJs=@protonmail.com> (raw)
Guix documentation says that `guix upgrade` is an alias for `guix package -u`, but the latter can upgrade a list of packages, while the former fails.
## Steps to reproduce
1. guix pull
2. guix upgrade --dry-run
3. Pick two packages from the list shown in (2), say, packages A and B
4. guix upgrade A B
## Expected result
Packages A and B are upgraded.
## Unexpected result
Step 4 fails with the following message:
guix upgrade: error: B: extraneous argument
## System information
Using guix 0ae0efd with the Guix System.
