|
|
LastPass-3 and earlier versions installed browser extensions along
|
|
with the necessary binary components. LastPass-4 and later versions
|
|
install only the binary components and leave installing the browser
|
|
extensions to the user. Furthermore, LastPass-3 is not available
|
|
anymore, it will be removed soon and users are required to upgrade. A
|
|
transparent package move is not possible due to the mentioned changes
|
|
and a manual migration is required.
|
|
|
|
The currently installed package must be removed before proceeding with
|
|
the migration:
|
|
|
|
emerge --unmerge --ask app-admin/lastpass
|
|
|
|
LastPass for Firefox users can safely upgrade to version 4 by visiting
|
|
the official LastPass website and following the download instructions.
|
|
The browser extension already contains the required binary components.
|
|
No packages need to be installed.
|
|
|
|
Users of Chrome/Chromium and Opera browsers need to switch to
|
|
app-admin/lastpass-binary-component and follow the instructions
|
|
displayed on the screen after the installation to complete the process.
