Oh. Wow. Lots of mixed packages there. 10.8.13 for web, 10.9.3 for server, 10.10.3 for the meta package. Let's backup your data, just in case. But I don't think this should delete your data.

Code:
sudo mkdir /jellyfin-backup
cd /jellyfin-backup
sudo mkdir etc var
sudo rsync -a -p --progress /etc/jellyfin etc/
sudo rsync -a -p --progress /var/lib/jellyfin var/

Now we are going to remove jellyfin-ffmpeg, jellyfin-web, and the jellyfin meta package.

Code:
sudo apt remove jellyfin-ffmpeg7 jellyfin-web jellyfin

This should leave you with only jellyfin-server 10.9.3 and all of your jellyfin data should still be in tact. Now we install jellyfin and it should install the latest jellyfin-ffmpeg, jellyfin-web, and pull jellyfin-server up to to 10.10.3.

Code:
sudo apt install jellyfin

the weird thing is, no other clients (web or android) complain about not being on the latest version of the server.
THe only client that doesnt let me play anything is the Android TV version of the Jellyfin app.

any reason for not removing the jellyfin-server before reinstallation?
after going through the suggested steps my jellyfin-web did get updated to the latest version, but the jellyfin-server still shows as 10.9.3. I assume the reason the update wasnt workign before isnt addressed yet.

Code:
# sudo apt list --installed | grep jellyfin

WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.

jellyfin-ffmpeg7/unknown,now 7.0.2-8-bullseye amd64 [installed,automatic]
jellyfin-server/now 10.9.3+deb11 amd64 [installed,local]
jellyfin-web/unknown,now 10.10.3+deb11 all [installed,automatic]
jellyfin/unknown,now 10.10.3+deb11 all [installed]

Removing Jellyfin-server would remove the jellyfin user from your system. Adding the potential that the jellyfin user would change UID when you reinstall jellyfin.

I had hoped it would pull the server up to 10.10.3, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Code:
sudo apt remove jellyfin-server
sudo apt install jellyfin-server

If Jellyfin doesn't start, reset permissions on jellyfin's data and config directories.

Code:
sudo chown -R jellyfin: /var/lib/jellyfin /var/cache/jellyfin/ /var/log/jellyfin /etc/jellyfin /usr/share/jellyfin
