Upgrading Sublime text 3

Question

I want to upgrade Sublime Tex 3, downloaded the deb, but I get the following error:

Breaks existing package 'sublime-text-installer' conflict: sublime-text ()

How do I upgrade Sublime correctly?

try to unistall the current sublime text and install the new version again, there is a big chance to solve the problem — moein rahimi, Feb 12 '16 at 06:36

Happened to me too. A quick search on the internet revealed that you can solve this by removing the deb package information using the following command in the terminal.

sudo dpkg -r sublime-text-installer

I assume you have sublime package so this worked for me

sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade sublime-text

This assumes that sublime-text is in one of OP's systems package repositories, which is not the default. – David Foerster Oct 25 '16 at 12:19
