I get this error when I start zcashd:  
_Error: This version has been deprecated as of block height 239776. You should_  
\_ upgrade to the latest version of Zcash. To disable deprecation for this version,\_  
\_ set -disabledeprecation=1.0.11.\_

and I am wondering what should I do to update my zcash, I installed it on my ubuntu by following Debian package install instruction [Download Zcash | Zcash](https://z.cash/download.html)  
now should I just add set -disabledeprecation=1.0.11 in the zcash.conf, will this update my zcash client?

OK, Let me answer my own question, inspired by [Upgrading ZCash from 1.0.8 to 1.0.11](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/upgrading-zcash-from-1-0-8-to-1-0-11/20864)  
because I’m new to Linux, this should be very easy for Linux users, simply do this two steps:  
apt-get update  
apt-get upgrade  
,before doing this make sure your zcash stopped, zcashd-cli stop
