How to install a skipped or deprecated package

Here's how:

Install a skipped or deprecated package by using the 'install' action of the d3 command, with the edition of the package you want. Because the packages are older than live, you'll need to use --force / -f

If you would like it to remain installed beyond the next sync, be sure to freeze it while installing it or immediately after.

Examples:

sudo d3 install filemaker-13-1 --force
sudo d3 i sketchup-pro-15.2-2 -f --freeze

Discussion:

When an edition is used to refer to a package on the server, that specific package is used, regardless of its status.

Deprecated and skipped packages are older than the currently live one for their basename. If a receipt is found to be deprecated or skipped during a d3 sync, it will be updated to the live package unless the receipt is frozen.
