Upgrading Debain Packages
Debian Package Upgrade
By default Debian release uses snapshot at the time of release. The package upgrade requires manual addition to the latest apt resources.
Adding Debian.org to apt source list
# echo "deb main contrib nono-free" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian_update.list # echo "deb-src main contrib nono-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian_update.list # echo "deb -backports main contrib nono-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian_update.list # echo "deb-src -backports main contrib nono-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian_update.list
Updating package repo
# apt-get update
Installing / Upgrading to latest package
# apt-get --only-upgrade install <package name>
i.e. if you wish to upgrade apache2 below is example of it.
# apt-get --only-upgrade install apache2
Updating Package at Compile time
To update the packages instead of snapshot to original Debian latest package lists and repository in the debian.org.
Edit file ./make_var_mx6ul_dart_debian.sh using following commands,
$ cd ~/var_mx6ul_dart_debian $ vim var_make_debian.sh
And change below line:
readonly DEF_DEBIAN_MIRROR="https://snapshot.debian.org/archives/debian/yyyymmddT"
to:
readonly DEF_DEBIAN_MIRROR="https://deb.debian.org/debian/"
For example, change this:
# default mirror readonly DEF_DEBIAN_MIRROR="https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20201130T213631Z/" readonly DEB_RELEASE="" readonly DEF_ROOTFS_TARBALL_NAME="rootfs.tar.gz"
to:
# default mirror readonly DEF_DEBIAN_MIRROR="https://deb.debian.org/debian/" readonly DEB_RELEASE="" readonly DEF_ROOTFS_TARBALL_NAME="rootfs.tar.gz"
And build normally.
Note:
- Latest debian.org packages may break your application libraries stack of your existing application.
- Please verify your application and package dependencies before upgrading to latest Debian packages.
