Proper way to update via scoop or clink update?

[maximunited]

So I installed clink via scoop. now with each new version I do the following: > scoop update > clink update

Then when I type clink info, the version does show the latest, but this version does not match the value of binaries or the scripts . It also shows an "old" version in the clink autorun show.

Example where version is 1.6.5, and other values are 1.6.3:

> clink autorun show                                                                        
Current AutoRun values

  Current user:

    native : "C:\Users\admin\scoop\apps\clink\1.6.3\clink.bat" inject --autorun
     wow64 : "C:\Users\admin\scoop\apps\clink\1.6.3\clink.bat" inject --autorun

  All users:

    native : <unset>
     wow64 : <unset>

and:

> clink info

What is the "correct" way to update?

Ugh. It's a scoop problem. By having the version number in the path, scoop makes itself incompatible with an app's built-in updater. And apparently whoever made the scoop update rules for Clink didn't make it update the autorun config.

I don't own the scoop entry for Clink. I recommend tracking down who owns it, contacting them.

Oh but you entered this issue in the wrong repo.

This is the mridgers repo, which was abandoned many years ago.

Please close this issue.

Please open an issue in the chrisant996 Clink repo.
