Script to update 2.9.x ISO to use Linuxcnc Version 2.10 (master branch)

Echo does not work, try this
forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...master-branch#324711

cnc@raspberrypi:~$ sudo apt-add-repository "deb buildbot2.highlab.com/debian/ bookworm master-uspace 2.9-uspace"
sudo: apt-add-repository: command not found

Try this line but make sure you run the lines containing the rm command first

Won't work, redirect of output is not done by superuser but by the invoking user.

Ahh thanks, all my scripting has been done in installers as root
I tested this on my chromebook but there the user has root permissions
Something like this should then work as a script.  

That worked. Was it supposed to overwrite the content of the linuxcnc-uspace.list?
That's what it did anyway. If you just wanted to add a new line at the end, "tee -a" is the answer.
Considering you did that in the previous commands with echo and >>

Cool, the ISO install points that file to the Linuxcnc.org repositories so deleting it let it us overwrite it to use buildbot2
Also we have a preferences file we delete to ensure Debian chose the Linuxcnc version at Linuxcnc.org, not the obsolete one in the Bookworm distribution. I don't think we need that here because  version 2.10 is > 2.94 (it worked for you)
If we do, we can edit the saved preferences version from the apt folder in your home folder or get it from the linuxcnc-livebuild (the binary versions are what we use, chroot is just for the builder)
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc-live-build/...worm/config/archives

Finally, I might add that this install is not best practice for apt. If you look at the Ethercat list.binary file, the key is explicitly referenced in the Deb archive line

I actually only tested that "tee" line.
But now I have tested the script and it fails on the "apt update" line.


Found it, there should be a "-P" in the wget command
The output of "apt list --upgradable" shows a number of 2.10 packages such as
linuxcnc-uspace/stable 1:2.10.0~pre0.4165.g55fb1a0267 amd64

These keys are a right pain in the butt, I have been it all before.
Try this which links the key on the Deb line.
You could just use sudo Geany to edit the file, but we know the script works you may need to delete the backup folder ~/apt

I guess you missed the edit I did on that message. There should be a "-P" on the wget line to put the downloaded key in the right place.
