How to update a ROS2 package
Hi I was following the ros2 doctor tutorial (https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Tutorials/Getting-Started-With-Ros2doctor/) and it gave the following warning
/opt/ros/foxy/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ros2doctor/api/package.py: 112: UserWarning: message_filters has been updated to a new version. local: 3.2.4 < required: 3.2.5
My question is, how to I upgrade this package?

If you are on Ubuntu have you tried apt-get update and the apt-get upgrade ? (Use sudo to run as root) (If the ROS repos are on your apt lists , which I am imaign they are for you to get your insstall).

rosdep can mix apt and pip python packages, so things can get confusing.
ros2 maintains its own set python packages in /opt/ros/foxy/lib/python3.8/site-packages. Once you've sourced your ros underlay you can install (or upgrade) a python package with a command like:
sudo pip3 install -t $PYTHONPATH <python package>

I'm a newbie on ROS 2 but probably just using rosdep or with synaptic should do the trick, isn't?
