DIY, build your upgrade to Ecne tool
- Anmelden oder Registrieren um Kommentare zu schreiben
Hello!
Here's a small present for early testers and maybe not so early too.
If you would like to test and possibly upgrade your Aramo to Ecne, this might be a start, so you get closer to T12 before the year ends.
So please test this out and let me know how it works for you.
https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/package-helpers/-/issues/245
Please, as always, be careful with your data, and only do early testing on safe environments like a non-production VM, secondary / old machines.
If we have reports of successful upgrades, then we can trust more serious machines. Full disclosure, I've been using Ecne since the early development stage, so I don't have production machine to test the upgrade.
Ecne is very well stable, we only lack the proper launch announcement from our project leader :)
Regards and happy holidays and GNU year.

I wanted to help and try this script,
but my mirror is out of service today.
https://quantum-mirror.hu/mirrors/pub/trisquel/packages aramo
sorry
Gottfried
after changing the mirror I run the script again
and it needed 7 min to download 2,15 Gb by max 7,7 Mb download speed
and 75 min to install Triskel 12.
at the end of the installation I was asked to delete the old files.
I pressed d
and it showed me the files for deleting
but I was not able to come back
in not knowing which key to press.
I pressed contr+d
which was wrong.
but Triskel 12 was installed anyway in restarting the VM luckily
which key should I have used to come back to the updating in the terminal_
Gottfried
There was no need to use "Ctrl", just d for details.
There is no key to come back, Ctrl+D is interpreted as "exit", so the shell is closed / terminated.
You can do
sudo apt autoremove
To clean remaining packages.
Glad that it worked :)
Cheers!
yes, it worked very well, it run smoothly through everything without interruption.
it installed Ecne. You and others did a great job. thanks
after the end it asked me if I want to delete the old packages.
It warned me that it can take hours.
it gave me two options: to accept it or to check which packages would be deleted with d
that´s why, because of the warning, I wanted to check the packages
after checking the packages
there was no possibility to go on, at least it didn´t give me any option.
so I didn´t know how to come back and finish the installation.
Would the q (for quit) help? or what should I have done in this situation?
Later, after rebooting, I used
sudo apt autoremove to remove the old packages
and it went quit quick,
I thought, may be quicker than in the installation process.
people aren't going to join trisquel, because it has a cool theme package, or uses the 'apt' package manager
they are going to join trisquel because they care about their freedom, security, and autonomy in computing, which are issues related to the bigger world we live in. if you want more people to join then you actually have to speak to the issues people care about
