Getting Current Updates

After the installation of Dr.Web Security Space using any method described in the corresponding section, the package manager automatically connects to the Dr.Web package repository:

•If installation was performed from a universal package (a .run file) and the system uses DEB packages (for example, Debian, Mint or Ubuntu), a separate version of the zypper package manager is used for operation with Dr.Web packages. It is automatically installed during Dr.Web Security Space installation.

To get and install updated Dr.Web packages with this manager, go to the /opt/drweb.com/bin directory and run the commands:

•In all other cases use updating commands of the package manager of your OS, for example:

▫on Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS, use the yum command;

▫on Fedora, use the yum or dnf command;

▫on SUSE Linux, use the zypper command;

▫on Mageia or OpenMandriva Lx, use the urpmi command;

▫on ALT, Debian, Mint or Ubuntu, use the apt-get command.

You can also use alternative package managers developed for your operating system. If necessary, refer to the reference guide for your package manager.

If a new Dr.Web Security Space version is released, packages with its components are put into the section of the Dr.Web repository corresponding to the new product version. In this case, updating requires switching the package manager to the new Dr.Web repository section (refer to Upgrading to a Newer Version).
