Debian and Raspbian packages now available

For me, after installing the Domoticz and Zigate packages, we must have to migrate Databases and Config file. This has to go through a manual steps as it will be hard to detect if there is already a pre-existing installation.

We can use a domoticz.preinst script or domoticz-zigate-plugin.preinst script to detect which files and directories already exist. If the preinst scripts detect the wrong version or wrong file locations they can stop the package install process before any changes are made to the system.

Example for domoticz-zigate-plugin.preinst

Code: Select all

if [ -d /usr/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/.git ];
then
  echo "You already installed the plugin from Git, please manually move the existing plugin directory aside"
  echo "and backup your configuration before installing this package"
  exit 1
fi

I like much that approach, but this should also be the case for Domoticz package as well, no ?

Could you suggest exactly which file or directory I should check for an existing Domoticz installation?

I'm sorry, I'm not the best to tell you that, as most of the installation are home made.

You might check what the domoticz installer (script) is doing. I think that would be the most used environment.

Thanks for the detailed log, this line shows us the problem:

N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-arm64/Packages' as repository 'http://apt.debify.org/debify debify-buster-backports InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'arm64'

You have an arm64 architecture and I only built for amd64, i386 and armhf so far.

I'd be happy to build for arm64 as well but it might be a few days before I do another build, is that OK for you?

Is this your device?

Do you have some news?

Hello,

Would you mind to use the latest stable version of the plugin as the beta-4.4 is quiet out-dated.

Would it be possible to be able to enable file log ? /tmp/domoticz.txt for exemple ?

The latest version, 2020.2-1 has now been packaged for Debian, please see this thread for details about the latest package. As part of this update, I also made builds for additional CPU architectures, including the arm64 (Orange Pi) build.

Please provide feedback if this works or not using the thread for the 2020.2-1 packages.
