Usage of packages
Download the packages and place them in the extra folder on the flash drive. If you are doing this from a system currently running this is at /boot/extra
.
Package install: installpkg package_file
(Example: installpkg rclone.tgz
)
Package upgrade: upgradepkg package_file
(Example: upgradepkg rclone.tgz
)
Package removal: removepkg package_name
(Example: removepkg rclone
)
Note: You can use upgradepkg to also install a new package by adding the option --install-new
like this upgradepkg --install-new rclone.tgz
WARNING: Do NOT remove packages you did not install yourself! Unraid uses this same system for its own package and it may break your installation or cause unexpected issues.
WARNING: Do NOT upgrade packages that are part of the normal unraid system as that may break your installation or cause unexpected issues.
