Update the Upgrade Control Package

When you are ready to allow users to update their systems to a new version, update the upgradectrl.p5m manifest, and republish and redeliver the new update control package. In the following manifest, the version of the update control package and the version of the pkg:/entire constraint package are updated. As an aid for users, the version of the upgrade control package, 1.10, is set to match the updated version of the entire package, 0.175.1.10.
