*apk add* adds the requested packages to _world_ and installs (or upgrades)

|

To upgrade individual packages without modifying _world_ use *apk-fix*(8).

By default *apk* tries to select a set of packages so that all dependencies

version if there is direct or implicit dependencies to the older version.
