Is it worth doing the update the yet ? been using Dragonfish for a few months don’t have any issues . so was wondering is it safe to do the update to EE only have Plex installed but really don’t need the trouble of configuring if it goes wrong .

[image] neofusion: You can look at the software status to see whom iX recommends the different versions to. You can, but even that is often overly optimistic.

An alternative opinion, Test the upgrade. If you have an issue report a bug and rollback. The upgrade is designed to be able to be rolled back, even if you are using apps. Just reselect your previous boot environment in System Settings → Boot If you don’t report the bug then it may not get fixed …

[image] rungekutta: Each to their own… but from the older controversy of applications in Core, to jails breaking on upgrades, to buggy virtualization in bhyve, to Coral, to then iX introducing apps in Scale but seemingly continuing to break them with every major upgrade… I’ve been watching from …

I can only echo this. Took the plunge the other day. The only annoying thing was ditching the IP addresses that I had given certain custom apps (because this isn’t supported in EE) and reconfiguring things to use port forwarding instead but I guess this simplified things from an IP management POV on…

I am holding off until 25.04. I am using jailmaker on 24.4 and need none of the new features. 25.04 will hopefully bring “native containers” so I can ditch jailmaker. And I want separate IP per container. I use that for a few ones. If you need none of the new features then I’d say don’t update.

[image] MSameer: If you need none of the new features then I’d say don’t update. Fair enough. But note that jailmaker sandboxes should still work, so you may consider upgrading to .1 or .2 later on.

You are absolutely correct but I’d rather wait for incus and migrate everything.

It’s “Tester” right now, which use type do you think is appropriate today with regards to EE?

Update worth it to EE?

There seems to be a rather nasty potential issue in the point release though. Hopefully resolved soon in a new hotfix.
