Update v157 to?

Hello.
I’m currently seeing in ssh :
Update Available
dietpi-update = Run now to update DietPi (from V157 to V152).

This seems curious.

If I run the updater I encounter

root@DietPi:~# dietpi-update
 [Info] Checking RootFS R/W access. Please wait...
 [Ok] RootFS R/W access.

Should I ignore the suggestion I’m seeing that an update is available ?

Thx

I can’t explain that error message from curl. But the current version of DietPi is 159 (released December 17), and I’m not seeing an update.

You will find the answer in the dietpi forum. I remember seeing the issue but it was a while ago now.

I’m sure @Dan_Knight will drop in for a solution to offer

This is a known bug, resolved once v159 is installed. However, the curl issue is new to us.

Lets try re-installing curl:

apt-get purge curl -y
apt-get autoremove --purge -y
apt-get install curl -y

Clear the update file and retry the update:

rm /DietPi/dietpi/.update_available
dietpi-update

Failing that, could be an outstanding filesystem corruption/unstable system, might be worth doing a complete reinstall with fresh DietPi image.

many thanks , team.
I burned a new image and am back in the game.

thx
