Can this update be installed from the GUI, or is it exclusively command line only? I tried it from the GUI and got this error message:

Cannot install application D:\Downloads\qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb
Thanks in advance!
In case anyone else runs in to this same issue, I was able to answer my own question (since no one else chimed in). Here is how I did it:
- Upload qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb to a directory on the NAS of your choosing (I used /root)
- (Credit to h3nk3t for this idea from and earlier post) apt-get purge qbittorrent-nox (removes remnants of version 1.03)
- apt-get install qbittorrent-nox (updates qbittorrent-nox to version 2.9.x)
- dpkg -i qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb apt-get install -f <--- I'm not a Linux Guru, so I'm not sure that last part was required
- Profit !!!
