Feature Request

Update the installer and dependencies before installing or updating a package.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Recently when I tried to install or update some apps with scoop, I got this error:

Failed to extract files from some_package_path
Log file:
  path\to\innounp.log

Please try again or create a new issue by using the following link and paste your console output:

The reason is that innounp, which is responsible for extracting the packages, is outdated. However, I need to manually update it before I can proceed to update or install any affected packages.

This is quite confusing. At first I thought it is the manifest that is wrong. It takes me lots of time to identify the problem.

Describe the solution you'd like

Update the installer and dependencies before installing or updating a package.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Instead, if a installation fails because extraction error, remind the user to update the installer.
