homebrew-cask-upgrade VS Homebrew-cask

I have used this [0] successfully to "pin" casks from being upgraded - my use case was Docker needing > macOS 10.

It allowed me to keep the version of Docker working while other casks could be changed

There’s a tap I use when deploying Macs: https://github.com/buo/homebrew-cask-upgrade

You can upgrade cask installs via an interactive prompt. You can automate this as well with a login or logout script in your MDM

brew cu -a will look at all your cask installs and let you know what’s out of date, then prompt to upgrade them all, interactive upgrade, or none.

Using Homebrew Cask for Calibre actually makes the problem worse because the download is consistently very slow for some people. For me, it took around an hour the last time I had it installed on my Mac.

(Note that I don't actually have calibre installed on my machine. I'm only going by the calibre.rb file present on brew's GitHub.)

seems like you might be able to look at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/commits/89f99aad090a5148b0a44eef826f1fc7c0c6aa84/Casks/arc.rb and figure out which version works and plug the version into the download url. would be more ideal if theres a way to do it directly from brew but im not sure how offhand

I use Homebrew to install and delete most apps, because they include a zap list in their formula of all files and folders to delete when uninstalling. You can see Parallels formula and zap list here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/tree/master/Casks/parallels.rb

Sto cercando di creare una "botte" per l'app VPN FORTICLIENT gratuita (e ho già fatto per il software Full Forticlient), vedi qui: [https://github.com/homebrew/homebrew-cask coin(https:/ /github.com/homebrew/homebrew-cask)

Huh, it was just accepted as the mainline fork in Homebrew last week! Been trying it and it seems to have all the features that the rowanj fork had! https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/pull/141659

True, and there's an issue for that: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/issues/89497

Follow the Homebrew file for installing Microsoft Edge, as it contains the folders to be removed when deleting Edge with brew: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/08f8ed4f738f2245fe8166d64dbc68b4b26add7b/Casks/microsoft-edge.rb (check the "trash" list)
