@gonzonia SO much fun…
lets see if we can find that older version binary
cd / find . -type f 2>/dev/null | grep -i nodejs_12.22.12

@sdetweil said in new update/upgrade script, ready for testing:
find . -type f 2>/dev/null | grep -i nodejs_12.22.12
I had a similar thought and ran just before you said that. I removed node and ran
sudo apt-get clean
Running the find after came back empty.
I tried installing again. Same result.
Now the find shows
pi@MagicMirror2:/ $ node -v v12.22.12 pi@MagicMirror2:/ $ find . -type f 2>/dev/null | grep -i nodejs_12.22.12 ./var/cache/apt/archives/nodejs_12.22.12~dfsg-1~deb11u4_armhf.deb

@gonzonia ok, I am trying to flash that OS version… but I don’t see Apr 3 2023… I see feb 21 2023…

hm… the prior release says
Linux raspberrypi 5.15.84-v8+ #1613 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 5 12:03:08 GMT 2023 aarch64 GNU/Linuxwe’ll see…

@sdetweil Thanks. When I ran into issues last update I ended up building it up from scratch again. There were some benefits to that and I have a pretty clean install now. I can do it again but would prefer to not have to.
-
@gonzonia also, make sure you back up…
-
@gonzonia so the prior version install of node20 went ok as expected.
but I don’t see the ‘npm’ item in the install list
Reading state information... Done Suggested packages: npm <------- I don't see this The following NEW packages will be installed: nodejs 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 20 not upgraded.
so lets do the uninstall again
and then trysudo apt remove npm
-
After an uninstall it says npm isn’t installed. I tried the install again and it’s still installing 12.22.12
I did the backup. I’m just going to rebuild. It’s annoying but it should work. :crossed_fingers_light_skin_tone:

@gonzonia one more try… got some feedback from node user
hang on while I do a quick test
do this
sudo cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
I see
