Can't update on Debian

[timbone316]

I want to make sure I have the latest jellyfin-server installed, and today I was finally able to upgrade from Stretch to Buster. I had to edit the sources.list to switch from stretch to buster so it would retrieve the latest packages, and it *did* update, but to 10.8.13 and it won't go past there. Now if i run "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade" it ends up with these errors:

Errors were encountered while processing:
ca-certificates-java
openjdk-11-jre-headless:armhf
openjdk-11-jre:armhf
openjdk-11-jdk-headless:armhf
openjdk-11-jdk:armhf
greenfoot-unbundled
bluej
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

but i'm not sure if that was from the Buster upgrade rather than installing a clean image. Any idea why it won't let me update jellyfin-server, so i can take advantage of the new media player? This also might fix my issue with audio tracks not switching on the Roku app. Thanks for any help.

This is almost certainly an apt problem from the upgrade. Double check ALL your repos were updated to buster. I'm assuming you got put on 10.8.13 is because apt couldn't/wouldn't pull the latest jellyfin repo manifest due to other issues. So your system's jellyfin manifest still has 10.8.13 as the latest.

Apt, and I think most other package managers, will not update ANY manifest if even a single repo is not set correctly.

How do I check my repos? I checked sources.list, but it only has one entry and it says buster. How i do i check inidividual ones? Thanks for your help!

You should be looking in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. There should be a bunch of .list and .source files in there.

Code:

root@rat-trap:/etc/apt/sources.list.d# ll
total 32
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May  9 10:38 ./
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Apr 27 16:55 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  112 Apr 29 17:11 docker.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  144 Apr 29 17:11 jellyfin.sources
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  183 Apr 29 17:11 ubuntu-esm-apps.sources
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  186 Apr 29 17:11 ubuntu-esm-infra.sources
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  386 Apr 29 17:11 ubuntu.sources

in that folder are only 4 files:

jellyfin.list (updated previously)
plexmediaserver.list (no stretch in there, and only lines were commented out)
raspi.list (updated previously)
vscode.list (commented line about it being disbaled, nothing else)

the jellyfin.list file only says this:
"deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/jellyfin-archive-keyring.gpg arch=armhf] https://repo.jellyfin.org/debian buster main"

Ok. Just double checked. Jellyfin 10.9 only supports Bullseye (11) and Bookworm (12). I forgot that Buster was Debian 10.

I'm assuming the choice was made to drop Debian 10 support due to it reaching EOL at the end of June.

Thank you! I'm upgrading to bullseye now. Do you recommend moving to Bookworm after that, or sticking with Bullseye for a while?

[TheDreadPirate]

Whatever you're comfortable with. Bullseye is EOL June 2026.

Thanks for your time and effort. Hopefully this will work.
