Updating Application from Local Mirror Repository (Part 2 of Updating Ubuntu from Local Mirror)

After doing additional of local mirror repository, we can check any updates that available.
For Example, I was trying to update Mozilla Firefox 3.0.3 to 3.0.4 version. Here are the step by step instructions :


1. Go to System/Adminstration/Update Manager.


or simply by clicking red arrow with exclamation mark ( ! ). You can see how many updates available if you placed the pointer on the arrow.


2. The Update manager window will be opened and showing all updates available.


Since we only update the firefox 3.0, right click on update list, and pick "Uncheck All".


3. Pick Firefox 3.0 related packages to update the Mozilla Firefox application. Then click "Install Updates" button. You will prompted for admin password to go through.


4. Just wait the update process to be completed. Then, close Update Manager window.


5. Restart firefox to see the update change.
