I myself can clarify this: It should be 'via' instead of 'vi'. The 
packagemanager has a 'versions' tab on the bottom if you click on the
resp. software, and there you can select a version and update.

But you have to set sfe-encumbered to sticky, and set
'pkg set-publisher --search-before=sfe sfe-ecumbered',
otherwise it won't update to the newer version from there,
and then the mentioned procedure via the tab is not necessary
anymore, just update again.
