How to upgrade one single package and all its dependencies with apt?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I am using curl in a building script on Travis CI. There is apt-get update && apt-get upgrade in my before_install option. The command consumes some time before building. However, I only need to upgrade curl itself and all its dependencies. If I use apt-get install curl only curl and libcurl3 will be upgraded. Of course I can manually write apt-get install curl libcurl3 libc6 libcomerr2 openssl zlib1g and other dependencies of curl or libcurl3. But is it possible to automatically upgrade all the dependencies of selected packages (not only the dependencies that do not meet the version requirement of the selected packages) such as apt-get install curl --upgrade-dependencies?

That should already be happening if you doapt-get install curl. At least if it is dependency information is correct in the package.

@Zoredache This only upgrades packages that do not meet the lowest version of target packages. For example, if I runapt-get install curl libcurl3only the two packages will be upgraded, other dependencies oflibcurl3likelibssl1.0.0andlibc6will not be upgraded.

Immediate dependencies, or also transitive dependencies? The former is much easier (e.g.aptitude install '~rcurl') than the latter.

@TobySpeight Both, of course. Now my workaround is manually setting all the dependencies found onpackages.ubuntu.comto upgrade.

The best i can think is something like...
pack=curl
apt install $(apt-cache depends $pack | grep "Dep|$pack" | cut -d':' -f2)
But the packages, to be upgraded, maybe have dependencies too...
