# packageUpgradeAction

A string specifying the relationship between the choice’s packages (specified by the packages property) and the same packages (based on the package identifier) installed on the host.

## Overview

Overview The possible values of this property are: 'clean': None of the packages are installed. 'installed': All the packages are already installed. 'upgrade': The versions of all the packages are higher than the versions of the installed packages. 'downgrade': The versions of all the packages are lower than the versions of the installed packages. 'mixed': At least two of the following conditions are true: One or more of the packages are upgrades. One or more of the packages are downgrades. One or more of the packages are not installed. For example, if a distribution contains a choice with a required package, you may deselect that choice if the installed package is more recent.
