I am sorry, no offense meant. I appreciate the terrific work you are providing and am very thankful. I was just trying to explain my reasoning, hoping it might help others. I regurlarly use ‘apt upgrade’ to maintain security and did not expect a breaking change, but could have looked at the package list up for upgrade. This can be accomplished with:
apt list --upgradable
Thank you for the clarification. Since I cannot accomplish the upgrade to OH4 yet (as discussed below), meanwhile I use apt-mark to lock the openHAB version to 3:
sudo apt-mark hold openhab openhab-addons
Holds can be shown with
apt-mark hold showholds
Without holding any packages I have followed the FAQ instructions in order to try migrating from OH 3.4.5. to 4.0.1 (openHAB 4 migration FAQ):
- Latest openHABian release with change in openhabian.conf, backup as initial.zip, additional change : remove comment in the line where initial.zip is specified.
- Everything is great, I (again) have a running OH3 instance (3.4.5) based on Bullseye and openHABian 1.8. So I have successfully moved from Debian 10 to Debian 11 using the FAQ instructions maintaining my site’s functionality. However the subsequent upgrade to OH4 fails:
results in the same error I had before (‘maximum’ debug output ):

It instructs apt to install “openhab” and “openhab-addons” each with an empty version information "= ".
So instead, I tried option 40->41, the config script claims that I am now running the stable version. The same apt-get install line is called but now the versions are specified:
$ apt-get install --allow-downgrades --yes -o DPkg::Lock::Timeout= --option Dpkg::Options::=--force-confnew openhab=4.0.1-1 openhab-addons=4.0.1-1
However: frontail / openhab.log show errors, the webserver is down, OH does not function anymore. There are several similar errors, this is the first:
