Reading [Upgrades docu](https://doc.crowdsec.net/Crowdsec/v1/getting_started/upgrades/) I try to understand what is the strategy when [installing with the different approaches](https://doc.crowdsec.net/Crowdsec/v1/getting_started/installation/)

- do I have to follow the same steps when I’ve installed the agent from the official repo or does the package itself take care of?
- I assume the wizard only takes care of upgrading the agent or does it also upgrade collections (based on the documentation I expect the `cscli` takes care of that
- what is the strategy to update the bouncers? According to the docu the `cscli` only adds bounders but cannot upgrade them…

Ok the last question is answered by [this post](https://discourse.crowdsec.net/t/collection-bouncers-updating/92). It probably would make sense to add this to the upgrade docu?

Hi @papanito,

Thanks for your feedback. Indeed we need to improve this documentation part.  
We opened an issue on [github](https://github.com/crowdsecurity/crowdsec/issues/806) about that, it will be done asap.

Cool, thanks. I could have added this by myself, but before creating an issue I wanted to reach out here… Looking forward to the improved documentation.
