dotnet 8.0.5

[AndyKF650]

Just a quick note to say that the latest update of dotnet is available and works fine with my RPi running CMXv4 and CUtils.

I installed that this morning on my Linux system and yes it is working fine for me as well.

I am not 100% sure, but I don't think it is not a requirement to update to all releases of Dotnet.
Unless CMX requires it (mentioned by Mark in release notes).

That seems like a fair answer

Well as I have the Microsoft repository enabled on my Linux system it updates automatically when I do that. If Microsoft put it in a repository then I think they expect it to be good and useable, however this is Microsoft we are talking about

What's the command tp upgrade to the latest on Linux?

What's the command tp upgrade to the latest on Linux?

It depends on the distro, mine on openSUSE from a terminal is 'zypper up (as root)' as it is Leap 15.5 which is not leading edge. There a multitude of commands each distro has its own ways of working.

And how do you enable the MS repository on Linux?

I am running a RPi with Debian 12 bookworm and the update process I use is as follows from the command prompt:-

Code: Select all

To update the dotnet installation.

First remove any existing .NET install:

	sudo rm -r /usr/share/dotnet


The install method installs the latest version, SDKs not needed or installed

	wget https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh
	chmod +x dotnet-install.sh
	sudo ./dotnet-install.sh -c LTS --install-dir /usr/share/dotnet --runtime dotnet

To test the install the following will show the version and other information

	dotnet --info

A final test from the terminal @CumulusMX will prove the installation.

	%cd /home/andyk/CumulusMX	
	dotnet utils/bin/cumulusutils.dll website

Dotnet V8.0.5 installed on Windows 10 and all working well.

Not sure when this started to happen but on one of my Windows 10 systems .NET 8.0.5 was installed as part of Windows Update.

installed 8.0.5 about 2 weeks ago. no issues on ubuntu 24.10 LTS server.

Seriously: if the bleeding edge of technology becomes the subject of threads on this forum, CumulusMX and the weather will 'snow under' and the transitIon to a pure tech forum is close. The version of dotnet is not so interesting (unless a major upgrade) and does not need attention. CMX and weather is and does.

24.10? Do you have a time machine?

Yet again missing the point. This is a FORUM where everybody is entitled to their views and do NOT have to conform to the "Law of HansR"!!
