How to update to the latest Tailscale version?

@chickendog

It usually takes a few days to recompile for all platforms/distros.

There is a 1.72.1 already with a bug fix.

@elvisimprsntr 1.72.1 is a linux only release.
Anyway I am saying it would be good if we could have access to older versions if we needed. pkg.freebsd.org seems to remove the old packages.
e.g. https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.68.1.pkg is dead

If you want to save a local copy so you can roll back, manually download the packages.

wget https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.72.1.pkg

@elvisimprsntr Thanks for adding these here!

One correction on your last post for the link: lastest -> latest

Yes the tailscale version command doesn’t properly parse the “_”. My bug report was rejected

Simply reinstall the package over the gui doesn't work?

[elvisimprsntr]

@slu

No, because the official pfSense tailscale package is still 1.54.0

If you manually update, the new package version will only appear on the tailscale status page.
