chicken-update

A utility program for updating chicken eggs.

Usage

Usage: chicken-update [OPTION ...]
All other options are passed directly to chicken-install.

      --unknown            try updating eggs with unknown version
      --upstream-egg-list-uri location of the egg list RSS feed,
        by default https://eggs.call-cc.org/rss-5.xml
      --pin=REGEX          pin eggs matching REGEX
  -h, --help               Display this text

Calling chicken-update on its own will check http://eggs.call-cc.org/rss-5.xml (or the URI you supplied for --upstream-egg-list-uri) for new egg versions and run chicken-install if there's a new version available. By default, eggs with an unknown version are not updated. You can "pin" eggs to prevent them from being updated by passing a regular expression to the --pin option. Other options get passed to chicken-install.
