Hey all, it seems I’ve not kept up on the instance updates and ran into a problem when looking to move several versions today. I’m currently sitting on 1.1.7, went through trying both the script and the manual steps (which look to be the same functionally) and get a consistent error every time at step 4/10
A couple things, is there a way I could set up an alert for version updates available to keep on top of things and more currently is there some steps I need to jump versions like this?
The relevant error in the build is below.

So a few minutes later after 2-stepping it to 1.2.x and then to 1.3.x it seems to have worked out. Will look to see if everything is working as expected. On that update notification list though, when I ran Mastodon there was a mailing list that just sent an email when there was a new version, is there some kind of similar list available here?

Can’t help with the upgrade, sorry. But for release notifications you can subscribe to this rss feed
We don’t have a mailing list, but in addition to the codeberg rss feed that squirrel shared, we do have a matrix channel and a zulip chat server where we announce releases.

Glad to see you got it working. In general, I would recommend only incrementing one code branch at a time to make sure everything works correctly.
I do just want to put it on your radar that 1.4 is coming out pretty soon (hopefully before the end of the year). So, look forward to that in the near future.
Seems like it, will keep a watch at the rss for updates. I typically work more on the network side than software, but in this case just jumping 2 points was a no-go. It’s all in the “easy way” from the docker setup so I’d guess the python 3.14 might have been the standard back in the 1.1.7 code?
Hmm. Seems pillow-avif doesn’t build. Maybe there’s an extra step involved likeapt install libavif-devMaybe your Python 3.14 is too new, there’s some bugreport open with pillow-avif and wheels for Python 3.14
We did have some python 3.14 issues in the past and ended up pinning the docker file to 3.13. I haven’t tried with 3.14 since. It is interesting that they got it to work, I might have to try 3.14 again.
