arcanemuse 'm really liking the new version. I had thought this was a rolling release but eopkg up or eopkg upgrade produced no results. It said no updates were available. So I had to back up my files, format the drive and install it from scratch. I still haven't gotten everything set back up the way it was but I'm lazy. Shouldn't take much more than an hour to fix everything. There should be a way to upgrade to the latest version without having to go through all of this every year, though. I tried numerous things I found on the internet. The last thing was to delete the eopkg database and rebuild it. It didn't rebuild. It was unfixable by any means I could find and so at that point I pretty much had to back up and format. LOL ooops. Well, I tried for over two hours to update my 4.7 and finally ended up breaking it so badly it just had to go. I should be good to go on that laptop for a while yet. I'm installing it on another laptop soon. I just need to pull some files off of it first. Poor little thing is struggling with Win 11. Time to set it free.
there seems to be software, hardware, human error and other factors combined in this. perfect storm. sounds like you hadn't updated for a while. @elfprince is right about all this. fixing something borked, in panic, then breaking is my stock in trade so I understand. Set 11 free or give it a different ssd/hdd and start fresh. Glad you kept your sense of humor 🙂
