HI,
on Debian Buster i am running owncloud-files 10.5.0-1+2.1.
Now i want to upgrade to 10.6
I first allowed dpkg to change the release tags but then i noticed there is no owncloud-files in 10.6 only a package called owncloud-complete-files_10.5.0-2+4.1_all.deb
So my first question would be what happend to owncloud-files?
the second question would be how to handle this .htaccess issue? (i guess its marked as a conf-file within owncloud-files)

Hi,
I had the same problem here. My observations:
Question 1: the owncloud-complete-files package has just some more apps bundled than the owncloud-files package.
Question 2: I uninstalled the owncloud-files package and installed the owncloud-complete-files package. However, there are some files that you have to copy fist to another folder and copy them back into the owncloud folder. Best would be to create a copy the whole owncloud folder before upgrading. After upgrading you can copy your config,php file into the new owncloud/config/ folder. There are few changes from 10.5. to 10.6 so you should be able to run 10.6 with the 10.5 configuration file. A diff on the two config-sample.php files shows you the differences. If you changed the .htaccess file in the main folder, you should also copy this one back (use diff on the original .htaccess files to see changes). Custom apps and themes the same.
Good luck, Pascal
Hi @pascala thank you very much for sharing your experience. Seems like thats the only choice i have, so i will try this in a test-system switching from owncloud-files to owncloud-complete-files. In this case i will first migrate within 10.5 and after owncloud-complete-files is the new base, i will to the upgrade to 10.6
Hi @iceroot, cool that you were able to upgrade so easily. I moved the installation from the default folder and did some other customization, so it was a little more complex here.
But I still think that this was a badly (or not at all) communicated change and even would deserve a bug report.
Best, Pascal
@iceroot and @pascala, just dropping by to say thanks. I was stumbling across the same problem, and this thread probably saved some hours of searching. Thanks.
