BAD PROXMOX UPDATE WARNING
(techhub.social)
Jokes on you I never update my proxmox
lol - I'm the same, and frequently wonder if I'm allowing tech debt to creep in. My last update took me to 8.0.3, and that was only because I built a new node and couldn't get an older version for the architecture I wanted to run it on.
Looks like someone fucked up package dependencies somewhere.
I'm surprised they don't have some basic automated testing running in a VM after new package releases but I suppose they don't need it if they can farm that duty out to their free userbase.
Isn't that the explicit downside to their free plan? I mean it would still be baffling if they don't have any in-house testing.
Been a while since I used proxmox but that's the nature of a lot of those free/corporate type softwares. The free 'community' edition is pretty well a public beta that you can get forum level support for, or sometimes you can get paid support at some limited level.
The probably do for the subscription
