Cubietruck upgrade 5.20

Hi,

 

couple of month ago I installed Armbian on my Cubietruck. I didn't really use it much, but today I decided to start using it, and obviously the right way to do so is to update to the latest version. So when I started, I had this version on my Cubietruck:

ARMBIAN Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS 3.4.112-sun7i 

I followed Igor's instructions at http://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-update :

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install -f
apt-get upgrade
apt-get autoremove -y

However, I received the following error message after the first instance of "upgrade":

...

I decided to run the remaining three commands anyway, but there was nothing to do for them.

 

After a reboot and another update & upgrade (which did not change anything), I checked the version. Now I was on

ARMBIAN Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS 3.4.112-sun7i

I had expected a 16.something version, but maybe I'm getting something wrong here. More importantly however, the system still reports to be running Armbian 5.16, instead of 5.20:

hanjo@cubietruck:~$ cat /etc/armbian-release
# PLEASE DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE
BOARD=cubietruck
BOARD_NAME="Cubietruck"
VERSION=5.16
LINUXFAMILY=sun7i
BRANCH=default
ARCH=arm

and there also seems to be some mismatch on the installed packages:

hanjo@cubietruck:~$ dpkg -l | egrep "armbian| linux-"
ii  linux-firmware-image-sun7i            5.20                                 armhf        Linux kernel firmware, version 3.4.112-sun7i
ii  linux-headers-sun7i                   5.20                                 armhf        Linux kernel headers for 3.4.112-sun7i on armhf
ii  linux-image-sun7i                     5.20                                 armhf        Linux kernel, version 3.4.112-sun7i
ii  linux-libc-dev:armhf                  3.13.0-100.147                       armhf        Linux Kernel Headers for development
ii  linux-trusty-root-cubietruck          5.16                                 armhf        Armbian tweaks for trusty on cubietruck (default branch)

Any clue what could be causing this?

 

Thanks a lot

Greetings

Hanjo

Hi Igor,

 

thanks for your response. Looks like apt does not find the 5.20:
