Virtualmin cannot be updated

[Bt6K]

Webmin version: 2.111
Virtualmin version: 7.10.0
Operating system: CentOS Linux 7.9.2009

I'd like to update to 7.20.1 however no package updates are available: https://pastebin.com/raw/f2tzGzLB

Here is my /etc/yum.repos.d/: https://pastebin.com/raw/HrZ7V20Q
Here is /etc/yum.repos.d/virtualmin.repo: https://pastebin.com/raw/uutHiTWM

Virtualmin was installed using the following commands:

wget http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/scripts/install.sh
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

Note: I am aware CentOS 7 is EOL, I do plan on updating to Debian 12 in the coming few days, however I need to first run some tests with more up-to-date PHP versions, which I currently cannot do as per #853

Any thoughts on how I can update to Virtualmin 7.20.1 would be very much appreciated.

Hello,

We haven't yet released Virtualmin 7.20.1 to the users. It may take at least a couple of days.

Hi,

Understood, however, I am on 7.10.0 so is there a reason I cannot update to 7.20.0?

[iliajie]

I don't see a reason why you couldn't update from the Virtualmin GitHub repo for testing purposes. However, it isn't something we can support or recommend.

Hi,

Apologies, what I was really getting at is:

Has 7.20.0 been released to the public yet, or is 7.10.0 still the most recent public stable version?

I understand 7.20.1 has not been released, but just wanted to check that's the same for 7.20.0

The apt packages have not been updated to include 7.20.0, even though the release was 2 weeks ago …

I got my answer:

I set up a new server with Debian 12, ran sudo sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/scripts/virtualmin-install.sh)" -- --bundle LAMP and see that 7.10 was installed:

root@test:/# dpkg --list | grep webmin-virtual-server
ii  webmin-virtual-server              7.10.0.gpl-1                            all          Webmin module Virtualmin Virtual Servers
root@test:/#

I guess I just need to be patient for 7.20.x, I was just confused since I figured because 7.20.x shows at https://github.com/virtualmin/virtualmin-gpl/releases it would be the in the "public" or "stable" tree or whatever Virtualmin calls it.

Yes, please wait a bit.

Yes, please wait a bit.

Is there any reason why not to have a script detect the new github release tag and automatically build the rpms and debs? Same as many other projects have this.

[iliajie]

Yes, the primary reason is simply time.

apt packages are released … yum probably too?

I'm sorry, what are you asking?

Just stating that I was able to update via apt packages to the most recent version, therefor @Bt6K should be able to do the same via yum.
