Last time I checked I wasn’t part of the Flightaware staff so you will have to wait on their announcement.
We found a problem during package upgrade testing and are preparing a 7.1 to fix that, release should not be far away.
Bullseye repositories are updated. There’s been a minor 7.1 release that fixes some issues with upgrades.
Let us know if you see any issues.
Thank you! – But no arm64 packages, or am I missing something?
As far as I know, Flightaware has never released arm64 / aarch64 / amd64 packages in past.
64 bit versions take about 5 minutes to build. I have done it a half dozen times this week.
Please see this page
Right now it is ver 7.0 arm64 packages.
Tonight I will build & add ver 7.1 arm64 packages also.
7.1 official debian package with @abcd567’s manual gain selection add-on installed yesterday: works like a charm!
Update via the flightfeeder page was partially succesfull, it gave a report about two packages without installable files.
All feeders are on Bullseye and the update feature on the flightfeeder page was referring to the buster repositories I guess.
After that I manually updated the packages accoring to this page PiAware - dump1090 ADS-B integration with FlightAware - FlightAware
Instructions on the page refers to version 6.1 ( changed that to 7.1) and followed the steps to install the packages.
That was without a problem on all feeders (6 in total).
So everything is running on 7.1 now
exactly: instructions have not yet been updated, but fear not! Those who want to update their debian packages might just type
wget https://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/files/packages/pool/piaware/p/piaware-support/piaware-repository_7.1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i piaware-repository_7.1_all.deb
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install piaware
… that’s how i flawlessly updated my package to 7.1
I did like this
sudo apt update
apt-cache policy piaware-repository
piaware-repository:
Installed: 6.1
Candidate: 7.1~bpo10+1
sudo apt install piaware-repository
sudo apt install piaware
sudo apt install dump1090-fa
sudo apt install dump978-fa
that7.1.~bpo10+1 version isn’t showing as a candidate on my system, it just states version 7.1 on the piaware repository
piaware-repository 6.1 is the v6 buster version
piaware-repository 7.1 is the v7 bullseye version
piaware-repository 7.1~bpo10+1 is the v7 buster version
If you’ve got a mismatched repository package (e.g. by manually installing the wrong .deb) you are gonna have problems.
Thanks for the feedback, as said all feeders are on Bullseye so then the installed version is correct.
Updating a 7.0 SD Card image to 7.1 using
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
generates this error
Setting up beast-splitter (7.1) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/beast-splitter.postinst: line 78: /sbin/udevadm: No such file or directory
because udevadm is in /usr/bin not /sbin.
Does the official 7.1 Piaware image support Airspy Mini out of the box? Thanks!
Thanks for the report. I’m not sure whether we’ll do a 7.2 for this since there are not a lot of people on the 7.0 beta; are you OK to reimage with 7.1?
(Actually, on further inspection, this is mostly harmless, so your upgrade should be OK - at worst you might need a reboot)
No, but you should be able to install airspy_adsb in the usual way (assuming it’s been built for bullseye)
Distribution: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
