Linux Mint Upgrade to 21 wants to downgrade zoneminder to 1.32.3

[homebrewdude]

Anyone run and update Linux Mint recently?

Anyway around downgrading Zoneminder from 1.37.20 to 1.32.3

Make sure you still have the 1.37 PPA since the upgrade.

It won't even install unless I downgrade it.
Seems odd

Run this

Code: Select all

apt-cache madison zoneminder

Post output.

~$ apt-cache madison zoneminder
zoneminder | 1.37.22~20220914133132-focal | http://ppa.launchpad.net/iconnor/zonemi ... ter/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages
zoneminder | 1.32.3-2ubuntu2 | http://mirror.cc.vt.edu/pub2/ubuntu focal/universe amd64 Packages

It should be installing the latest version available, so that’s a bit odd.

Might be worth working through this to try to get it to install 1.37. https://itsfoss.com/apt-install-specific-version/

Of course you can grab a .deb file, install that and see if it straightens out.

I have the very same problem.
Upgrading from 20.3 to 21 the mint upgrade system doesn't let you to continue unless you downgrade zoneminder.
After downgrading it..... it stops working! (Apache seems to be totally screwed up! Missing web page!).
