3.2. Installation
UpStare is available in the form of Debian and RPM packages. The provided packages are:
upstare-system: The UpStare system. It includes the updateable compiler, runtime system, patch generator, and the tool that applies updates.
upstare-doc: Documentation, including this manual.
upstare-tests: The system tests which provide a large collection of example dynamic software updates.
 | If you believe your system meets the package dependencies, but installing packages fails due to missing dependencies, installation of the packages is still possible. Installation of RPM packages can be forced as shown in Figure 3-1, and installation of Debian packages can be forced as shown in Figure 3-2. |
