Upgrading required plugins
63
63
--------------------------
65
Many plugins are not dependent on a particular Bazaar version so
66
upgrading them is optional. Other plugins, notably bzrtools and
67
bzr-svn, are more tightly associated with Bazaar's APIs so these
68
typically need to be upgraded in lockstep with the core software.
70
For Windows and OS X users, bzrtools and bzr-svn are typically included in
71
the installer so no special steps are required to upgrade these. For
72
Ubuntu and other GNU/Linux or Unix systems users, bztrools, bzr-svn and
73
many other popular plugins can be installed and upgraded using your
74
platform's package manager, e.g. Synaptic on Ubuntu.
