Title: LLVER Bug
Post by: Jerry on November 03, 2016, 05:13:52 AM
I've found a bug that after upgrade, will show /etc/llver as 'Linux Lite 3.0' instead of 'Linux Lite 3.2' This in turn affects Lite Tweaks, Bootup Fix.

Will work on a fix and report back when complete.

Ok this is fixed. Please run:

Menu, Favorites, Install Updates
Menu, Settings, Lite Upgrade


I know this is pain for some to run this again, but if I don't fix this properly now, we will have this bug every upgrade.
Will also post this under the Release Announcement.

Before running the fix I had run deborphan to check for stragglers. I got a 'file 20auto-upgrades.ucf-dist, located in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ will be ignored due to invalid filename extension'. What makes it interesting is that after running the install updates/lite upgrade fix, it went away. Don't know if they're related to the LLVER problem, but I thought I'd mention it in case anyone else gets it. Thanks again!

Thanks Ottawagrant, haven't come across the error you had, but then again I don't run deborphan and have no idea of the effect of it in LL.

Hallo from Austria
I have installed LL 3.0 last year and get last week the upgrde to LL 3.4, but now I'm confused.
System Information tell me under Operating System   - Distribution : Linux Lite 3.0, also
grub show me at bootscreen Linux Lite 3.0.

The upgrade 3.4 button tell me "You are already running the latest release"

So what version is installed, how can test this.
