Update from 3.0.0.5 to 3.0.0.8 [answered]

Maybe downgrade to 2.2.x and then upgrade to 3.0.0.8 could work? My converted Aquafish runs 3.0.0.8 and I updated it via commandline from 2.2.0

Unfortunately downgrading doesn't work. It sounds plausible, that you could update from 2.2.0. I think the updates are delta updates, not full updates of the OS. Is it possible to force a full update, that overwrites the system like TWRP does for LineageOS or other operation systems?

Sorry to hear that you have troubles with the upgrade. Check if you have enabled only the minimum repos required. On my Intex I get with "pkcon repo-list" this list: Enabled adaptation0 adaptation0 Enabled adaptation1 adaptation1 Enabled aliendalvik aliendalvik Enabled apps apps Enabled customer-jolla customer-jolla Enabled hotfixes hotfixes Enabled jolla jolla Enabled sailfish-eas sailfish-eas Enabled store store Enabled xt9 xt9 In case you spot something else then disable it, or remove the repo completely.

In addition after "ssu re 3.0.0.8" you might try to rebuild the local rpm database. To do this type as root: "rm -rf /var/lib/rpm/__db*" "rpm --rebuilddb" and then "pkcon refresh" and "version --dup"

Good luck!

Thanks very much for your suggesion. Unfortunately this fails either:

The upgrade could NOT be finished. Make sure you have
a working Internet Connection and SSU is propertly set up. In
case the repos are changing rapidly (e.g. during development),
just restarting the upgrade might fix the issue.

REBOOT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Some more ideas? I may have to wait for december. i thnk, the next release is planned for december, isn't it?

One more idea is to use the "ssu" command to check the settings for the update process. "ssu --help" will give you an overview of the command options.

With "ssu repos" your device will list all the repos. My "converted" Aquafish lists following items:
