Hi everybody

I'm not sure if I messed up my zm installation or if I need to upgrade Ubuntu server version, but I'm getting an error while trying to upgrade to 1.37.1 on my server.

I've been running zm on Ubuntu server 18.04 for at least a year now, no issues so far, I upgraded from 1.35 to 1.37.0 without any problems, but when I try to upgrade from 1.37.0 to 1.37.1 I get an unmet dependencies message, and it seems there are no candidates for the missing components.

This is the output from when I try to upgrade:

sudo apt install zoneminder zoneminder-doc
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
zoneminder : Depends: libswscale5 but it is not installable
Depends: libswresample3 but it is not installable
Depends: libjwt-gnutls0 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I tried to install the libraries manually, with the same result, no candidates for any of the libraries.

So I'm not sure if it something I messed up, or if it is time to upgrade to 20.04.

Any help will be appreciated

We accidentally removed support for bionic. I'm in the process of figuring out how to fix it. Stay tuned.

Great, thanks iconnor.

When I try to upgrade to 1.37.1, I get the following:

Same problem with 1.37.1~2021081805411-bionic

Just to confirm, upgrade without issues to 1.37.1~20210818105411-bionic amd64 a few minutes ago.

The only thing I did was specify the packages I needed to upgrade directly instead of using "apt-get upgrade", because when I tried it the first time, it responded with still keeping back zoneminder, even after reporting on login there was an update available for zoneminder.

Thanks again iconnor and guys

I updated my software sources and was also able to upgrade with the latest on bionic.

Thanks for the help.
