Hi,

Help info on why my Winterhill fails to update, it stays on older installed version after reboot.

I can see a comment on github '202512190 Amend the sources.list to legacy'

I think this must be some housekeeping relating to where the RPi packages come from, as they move them around sometimes. That must have triggered a change to the 'latest version' file.

The ZR6TG client version of WH is on github, which I believe is not installable at the moment. There has only ever been one version of my original WH on github. I'm not sure what the development install does - probably the same as the main install.

Thanks Brian,

Presumably just wait to see if a fix is available.
