Error: Not upgrading 1 installer manual cask.

[wagnergerald]

When trying to upgrade the libreoffice-language-pack package and get the message:

$ brew upgrade --cask libreoffice-language-pack 
Error: Not upgrading 1 `installer manual` cask.
libreoffice-language-pack
$ 

I'm a bit lost here what an installer manual package is and how to handle it.

Is it related to this FAQ entry about installer manual?

Casks with installer manual need to be installed by the user using the GUI installer. As a consequence, I don't think Homebrew can upgrade them automatically either. You might have to use brew reinstall and run the GUI installer again (I am not a Cask expert though).

Thank you for your reply!

I used brew reinstall --cask libreoffice-language-pack and the package was updated.

Thank you! This also fixes the issue for other apps, e.g. jagex.
