new update/upgrade script, ready for testing

@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

hm… the prior release says

we’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.

sdetweil

@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 try

sudo apt remove npm

@sdetweil

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

deb [arch=arm64 Pin-Priority:600 signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/nodesource.gpg] https://deb.nodesource.com/node_20.x nodistro main

pi@MagicMirror2:~ $ sudo cat  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
deb [arch=arm64 signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/nodesource.gpg] https://deb.nodesource.com/node_20.x nodistro main

sdetweil

@gonzonia ok, suggestion was to add the pin-priority

try the node20_install.sh again from my repo
