The
cargo install
command was not able to update installed binaries 4 years ago. So we needed to use some hacks to detect available updates manually and then use--force
to reinstall the newer versions. Apparently this code has some issues with ordering versions numbers, as reported in #1.While we could use the
semver
crate to get the correct order, we can also use the "install-update" feature of cargo itself, which was stabilized in Rust 1.41. Using this feature, this PR is able to vastly simlify the crate. We now just parse thecargo install --list
output to detect the installed crates and then pass each of them tocargo install
. Thecargo install
command will then figure out whether do upgrade or not itself.Fixes #1.
