Hi all,

can some kind soul tell me if this update will break my cubieboard installation? (I know that cubieboard a10 is no longer supported, nevertheless maybe someone can tell me after 5 seconds of thinking "yes" or "no" :)).

 

XXXXX@cubieboard:/etc/apt/apt.conf.d$ apt-get -s -t stretch install dnsmasq
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
      apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
      Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
      so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

Many thanks, Otario

Hi there,

 

I finally found some testing time :-). I did the trial and error test and I can state the cubieboard rebooted without any problem. No error messages during the apt-get command.

 

I hope someone might find this feedback useful.

 

Best regards, Otario
