Packages for Which Updates Are Available

The -u option lists all installed matching packages that have newer versions available. The number of packages that have newer versions available might be larger than the number of packages that could be updated in this image, as discussed in Newest Packages. The installed packages shown below have updates available, but those updates cannot be installed into the current image. Packages can be updated only to versions allowed by the constraints imposed on the image by installed package dependencies and publisher configuration.
