sudo dpkg -i mlat-client_0.2.11_BULLSEYE_armhf.deb
I have it updated which seemed to work, but don’t see any MLAT data yet… What is the best way to test it.
The following is what I have now…

It may take some time for mlat to appear on your Radarbox24 site.
To check if mlat is active, run status command:
sudo systemctl status rbfeeder
If mlat-client is working OK, the output of status command should contain “/usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/bin/mlat-client”.
CGroup: /system.slice/rbfeeder.service
├─ 994 /usr/bin/rbfeeder
└─1200 /usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/bin/mlat-client --input-type dump1090 --input-connect 127.0.0.1:32457 --server mlat1.rb24.com:40900 --lat 43.5>
If “/usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/bin/mlat-client” is missing, Reboot RPi and check again, it should appear now
It is showing non-compatible version of mlat-client at Radarbox24 repositories.
Issue following commands to block apt from replacing your healthy mlat-client by non-compatible mlat-client from RB24 repositories:
sudo apt-mark hold mlat-client
sudo apt update
Great. MLAT is now working on RB. One last thing, though. How do I get rid of the extra mlat client?
pi@piaware:~ $ sudo apt-mark hold mlat-client
mlat-client set on hold.

You do NOT have extra mlat-client on your RPi.
The apt is reading apt sources list which includes RB24 repository, and lists their mlat client.
Give following command and it will show RB24 repository list
ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
You will see one file name something like rb24.list (I dont remember exact name). Delete it, then run update command, the annoying mlat-client messages will stop.
sudo apt update
Much appreciated!
