Hi Tomas,

I just tried to update a Raspberry to the r5 release, but get this problem:

So I cannot get to the newest release right now. I did updated a few others without problems some time back.

I will try another time again, maybe problem with server now?

Regards,
Peter

Hi, Peter.
The repository for the release candidate has been replaced with a testing repository.
Please change the -r5 section of the URL address to -testing.

Best Regards,

Hi, How to install the official version. Made a fresh buster installation and followed the standard procedure of the REXYGEN getting started description. But the install was 2.50.9. Or is there still only the testing version released?

Hi Guenther,

the official release version is still 2.50.9 for now. However we are not far from public release of 2.50.10 and the pre-release version is available in above mentioned post.

Kind regards
Tomas
