    Trying to upgrade from 2.5.0 to 2.5.4, the link to the log is here: https://logs.tinypilotkvm.com/pj6BgiHx

    Seems like perhaps two error logs:
    TASK [ansible-role-ustreamer : check if legacy Janus package is installed] *****
    fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "cmd": "dpkg-query --show --showformat='${Maintainer}' janus | grep TinyPilot", "delta": "0:00:00.040661", "end": "2025-01-15 15:36:21.240020", "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 1, "start": "2025-01-15 15:36:21.199359", "stderr": "dpkg-query: no packages found matching janus", "stderr_lines": ["dpkg-query: no packages found matching janus"], "stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []}
    ...ignoring

    And

    TASK [ansible-role-ustreamer : enable Janus apt suite] *************************
    fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to update apt cache: E:The repository 'http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports Release' does not have a Release file."}

      Hi John, thanks for your message. I'm sorry you're having trouble upgrading from TinyPilot Pro 2.5.0 to 2.5.4.

      Unfortunately, your TinyPilot device is running a very old version of TinyPilot Pro, which can't be updated directly. However, you can still upgrade your TinyPilot device to a newer version of TinyPilot Pro by performing a factory reset.

      I appreciate this is a hassle; however, upgrading in this way will also upgrade the operating system on your TinyPilot device, providing access to performance and security improvements.

      Please let me know if you have any questions.
