    Yes, this is great... but what about casks that doesn't auto-upgrade AND you absolutely DO NOT want to upgrade them (I think of eclipse-java... when using brew upgrade it breaks your install). Commented Mar 11, 2022 at 20:52
  • I'm not sure, but if you want to fix that issue specifically, I'd switch to IntelliJ IDEA. It's much better than eclipse and doesn't have this issue. Commented Mar 12, 2022 at 5:26
  • Honestly, I tried a few times IntelliJ over the recent years, and I hate it; to me, it's no better than Eclipse, I found it's just another over-complicated bloated IDE... and as I'm used to Eclipse for more than 15 years now, I don't find any reason to change. Or maybe for VS Code... ah ah!!! but we're OT here... Commented Mar 14, 2022 at 11:28
  • Perfect solution! Thanks, worked like a charm to avoid these minor upgrades to libreoffice that took ages for a tool I don't use much. Commented Jul 22, 2022 at 22:23
  • For those wondering what the "cu" in "brew cu pin <CASK_NAME>" is, it is only available once the cask-upgrade tap is installed. Just click the link above for buo/homebrew-cask-ugrade and it explains further. Commented Feb 28, 2023 at 8:54
