SG-1100 - No upgrade prompt
-
I'm running an SG-1100 w/2.4.5-p1. Dashboard widget does not show 2.5.0 available. Under the Upgrade menu, my branch is Latest stable version (2.4.x) and the only other option is Previous stable version (2.4.4 - Deprecated). I only have the OpenVPN Client Export and pfBlocker-NG packages installed. System-Patches package has been removed. System log shows:
pid 49199 (pkg-static), jid 0, uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
so that's likely my issue but I'm not sure how to fix a broken package manager. I upgraded System-Patches a little while ago but I don't remember exactly when. Perhaps I didn't notice that 2.5.0 had come out, I upgraded System-Patches and now pkg is broken.

"a little while ago" as in possibly after 2.5 came out on Feb 17? If so then yeah it could be broken.
https://forum.netgate.com/topic/161025/to-2-5-0-or-not-that-is-the-question/41 (and others in that thread)I expect the solution is to open a ticket at go.netgate.com and they will send you firmware to reinstall. Just do so without packages and add those later after setting the version to 2.4.5p1.

@teamits I've put in a support request. I'll report back with replies.

According to Netgate, the problem is a bug in pkg that can only be fixed by a full reinstall using a 21.02 image followed by a config restore. That will be something that waits for the weekend at the earliest.

@bmeeks This thread sounds like the issue you ran into in the (unrelated to this) Redmine update you just posted.

Yeah, sounds similar. I'm only working with my SG-1100 to help Netgate sort out a weird bug with Snort and Suricata on ARM hardware (specifically the SG-3100, but it may apply to the SG-1100 as well, so that's what I'm going to test with).
