Updating packages from FPMS may break FPMS

[adriangranados]

If one of the packages being updated is wlanpi-fpms, then updating from FPMS causes the update process to be interrupted when the FPMS service is restarted, breaking the package installation. Running sudo dpkg --configure -a from a terminal should resolve the issue.

I ran this command provided and restarted FPMS and it still fails, any ideas how to correct this?

Here is the log status:

What's the output of uname -a?

It appears you caught us in the middle of some updates to our packages repo. Please run the following commands to update FPMS (and other wlanpi-related packages that should be updated, too):

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

That should fix it. Otherwise, let us know.

It worked, thanks for your help on this. I look forward to your deep dive "Mastering WiFi Explorer Pro" next month at the WLPC in Phoenix. Take care.

We've removed the ability to run software updates from FPMS, so this has become a non-issue.
