I ran brew update and am still able to reproduce my issue.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

I tried to upgrade selected casks from brew outdated using the command brew upgrade cask.... The upgrade failed for libreoffice-language-pack.

What happened (include all command output)?

$ brew upgrade libreoffice-language-pack
Error: Not upgrading 1 `installer manual` cask.
libreoffice-language-pack
$

What did you expect to happen?

The cask should be upgraded (as it did in the past) or a more descriptive message should be presented (including instructions what to do to upgrade the cask).

You can blame upstream for this, sometimes they change the install method and casks break.

or a more descriptive message should be presented (including instructions what to do to upgrade the cask).

As far as I know this is impossible since installer manual: just means "we can't script this install" so we wouldn't know what to do either.

Thank you for the reply! I am aware I’d most likely have to install the language pack manually (like before). However, I expected Homebrew to download the newer version of the installer for me, like it did with previous versions. This is currently not done using brew upgrade libreoffice-language-pack. After running it, I still get:

$ brew outdated -v | grep libreoffice-language-pack
libreoffice-language-pack (7.0.3) != 7.1.3

This may be due to changes done to avoid uninstalling Casks discussed in #105622
Specific Homebrew code change in Homebrew/brew#11378

Specific Homebrew code change in Homebrew/brew#11378

Thank you for the link, @cho-m! (I had seen the other issue before but not this one.) The mentioned change added the error message I am experiencing. However, LibreOffice Language Pack (LLP) works differently than battle-net as described in #105622. The LLP cask provides an installer that just modifies LibreOffice.app and then can be safely removed or replaced (upgraded).

I discovered a workaround – I downloaded the upgrade of LLP successfully by issuing:

brew reinstall libreoffice-language-pack

So I think the same action could be still done in brew upgrade as it used to be. (Moreover, the command could automatically launch the GUI installer of LibreOffice Language Pack instead of just writing its location but that’s another story.)

I am not an expert in Homebrew internals but I think the installer: manual definition should be removed from the LibreOffice Language Pack cask or replaced with a more appropriate one since its meaning changed due to Homebrew/brew#11378.

The problem has not been corrected yet (checked by issuing brew upgrade libreoffice-language-pack now), so this issue is not ready to be closed.

We don't need anyone to confirm this, we know this happens. Unless someone fixes this somehow, it'll stay this way too.

Preferentially I would say that this is the desired behaviour until there is a --allow-gui or similar switch (#24377). My primary concern is that brew upgrade will first uninstall the cask, so if you forget to run the installer the cask is no longer installed as brew will "succeed" as long as the download is successful.

Perhaps in the interim we could add some output to the Error: Not upgrading 1 installer manual cask. output to reference using reinstall instead.

Thanks for your reply, @bevanjkay, but I am not sure you are aware of how libreoffice-language-pack (LLP) actually works. Please read my previous post carefully as I think it answers your concerns.

Preferentially I would say that this is the desired behaviour until there is a --allow-gui

Yes, adding such a switch could improve the way LLP is installed using Homebrew. However, I’ve said I don’t want to discuss such a change in this issue. The actual problem is that currently brew install libreoffice-language-pack is able to download and unpack LLP (without installing it which would require GUI) while brew upgrade refuses to do the same (with a newer version).

My primary concern is that brew upgrade will first uninstall the cask, so if you forget to run the installer the cask is no longer installed as brew will "succeed" as long as the download is successful.

LLP is just an installer app containing a script to modify LibreOffice.app. It is OK to replace LLP with a newer version (proven by using brew reinstall libreoffice-language-pack). When you run brew upgrade libreoffice successfully (i.e. replace the contents of LibreOffice.app), you get the current LibreOffice version without LLP installed. The current Homebrew behavior does not help you to ensure keeping a localized LibreOffice.app in any way.

AFAIK brew upgrade libreoffice-language-pack used to succeed (and brew reinstall libreoffice-language-pack does succeed) when it downloads the current version of LLP and prints the notice to install it manually. I find this the best option as far as GUI is not allowed and LLP maintainers don’t provide a scriptable solution.

Perhaps in the interim we could add some output to the Error: Not upgrading 1 installer manual cask. output to reference using reinstall instead.

This would be slightly better than the current state but not as good as restoring the previous upgrade functionality. Moreover, this would still mean we could not upgrade all installed casks using brew upgrade.

i was also surprised that the upgrade not work anymore on libreoffice-language-pack :(

Error: Not upgrading 1 installer manual cask.

This error message gives me no hint what is wrong with it and i even need to google for an explanaition of the error message, because i never seen this with brew before.

at least it would be helpful if it would print out a help text (which is in the cask definition file) and i see a "solution" how to get things done.

in this example:

hint: cask libreoffice-language-pack can not upgraded, use brew reinstall --cask libreoffice-language-pack instead

@muescha I simply added a note similar to your last comment in the cask itself - so it will show up during install for the users
