MX Linux Forum

This morning's full-upgrade updated strawberry (among others) to version 1.2.13-1~mx23+1 without any action on my part.
So it seem the problem, whatever it was, has been resolved.

Thanks,
Mike

EDIT: Just noticed - probably solved as in https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=104&p=831167#p831167 ...

Is this what you mean?

$ strawberry --version
Strawberry 1.1.3

Synaptic shows Installed version 1.1.3-mx23+1 (and the same for latest version; version string copied by hand)
MXPI shows the same
(Sorry '-' should be '~')

Mike

shows nothing, both with and without sudo

$ sudo apt-mark showhold
$ apt-mark showhold
$

To my memory I have not changed any strawberry settings
However this morning I saw:
$ sudo apt full-upgrade

Tried with Cromium (still from MX) and got:



That's after entering olum.com in the address bar
Someone is very confused (could be me)

Or using conky
add

Battery level: $battery_percent %

to whatever conkyrc you use

Don't think of the sudo password query (or any privilege escalation) as a way of granting you supreme powers.
Think of it as the safety switch on a firearm. Would you carry one with thw safety off?
If you are prepared to barge ahead on a possibly wrong without a moment's pause for consideration ...

Thanks, did that.
As /usr/local/bin was not in $PATH, I placed the file in /usr/bin/yt-dlp
Hoping for the best.

Just tried sudo yt-dlp -U
Success!

$ yt-dlp --version

@DukeComposed
Unfortunately the version in MXPI is out of date, and does not always work (Google keeps changing the Youtube protocol)
And the recommended PPA does not add.

Sorry 'bout that
Mike
