can not upgrade to 7.7. From 7.6 must remove old package and start all over
Last modified: 2011-10-02 21:44:48 UTC
yes 7.7 can not be installed over 7.6 so an upgrade is not possible with the RPM package. i have to rpm -e to remove 7.6 before installing 7.7 lms . possible but not nice i prefer to upgrade with all settings and dB intact.
Se this post. http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=659772&postcount=58 A solution was suggested: "Surely this is as simple as adding 'Obsoletes: squeezeboxserver' to the spec file? Devs, if you want to change the package name, please obsolete the old one so it is possible to upgrade rather than have to remove and re-install. "
7.7/trunk/platforms/redhat/squeezeboxserver.spec Has this in line 50 Obsoletes: squeezecenter, slimserver, SliMP3 This means that i can upgrade from squeezecenter or slimserver :) But not from squeezeboxserver ?
should now install fine using "rpm -U" on top of an existing sb server
Can someone do the nigthly builds for 7.7 So that I can try this and verify :)
Worked for me installed and running...
Can we reopen I can not not install 7.7 rc4 over rc3 I get conflicts. Nor can I install a nightly i get other erros.

The nightly was possible to install with the --oldpackage option
(In reply to comment #7) > The nightly was possible to install with the --oldpackage option The problem here is the file naming: releases (and release candidates) come with 7.7.0-1, while nightlies are 7.7.0-0.1. Under "normal" circumstances this is correct, as you wouldn't have nightly builds of the same release once the product has been released. It's slightly different with the RCs, but nothing to really worry about. It's been this way for years.
