      All,

      Seems that there was an omission of: BIND DNS, Avahi and 'radiusd' (albeit freeradius3 is present). As these were unexpected, any installations that rely (especially on BIND and/or Avahi), upgrading may not be possible at this juncture.

      Does anyone happen to know if at least BIND and Avahi will be returning to the package repository for 2.6.0?

      Thanks!

        @justme2 they are there - just a problem with the name changes or something. I ran into the same thing on 22.01 - but after the install, just install those packages and all working..

        Let me see if can dig post about it.

          @johnpoz - both of those packages appear to now be in the "available packages" list. Seems odd that for a couple hours they (BIND/Avahi) were 'missing' from the list, but hours later appear. Following the commentary from posts about "install from scratch" (using the copy config.xml to USB for restore) - only impact was where those two packages were absolutely required. Interesting on the naming aspect. Under 2.5.2, made sure that all the packages had been on the latest version, prior to upgrade. Not sure if that artifact is useful.

          While a bit off topic - where BIND/Avahi weren't required, the process was flawless and (as others have noted) there appears to be a sense of increased performance. (Hats off to folks responsible)

          Thanks!
