installJRMC - MC installer for Linux

--- Quote from: BryanC on May 21, 2024, 08:02:44 pm ---I added noble support in installJRMC v1.0.2 for *buntu >= 24.04 as well as a new "--base" option to select your preferred debian base manually for fun or troubleshooting.
I tried running the noble MC build on Fedora 40 and it worked fine:
--- Code: ---installJRMC --install local --base noble
--- End code ---
I'm not sure how many people are using my Fedora/CentOS repo, but I'm curious if anyone would be for/against switching the fedora rpms in my repo to a noble MC base. I'm tempted since it seems to work OK on Fedora 40 and would be the latest and greatest, but I have not tested on F39 or lower or any of the CentOS derivatives.
Since there's now a fairly wide compatibility gap, I'm also thinking of a way to automatically select the appropriate MC base version for older distros and/or legacy MC releases and providing warnings/workarounds if there are issues.
Is there a list of which MC versions correspond to each Debian base version? IIRC sometimes it has switched mid-version so a tree of the repo would help!

MC31 was the first with Bullseye as the base requirement. That's the current required base.
MC27 through MC30 have Buster as the base requirement
MC20 through MC26 have Jessie as the base requirement
There have been changes to packages required in between major versions but not to the base requirements.
BryanC:
Great, 1.1.0 uses the right repos for older versions and a new alpine-based container for checking the latest MC version. This will save about 80MB of disk space and bandwidth on first install.

This is a fantastic thread for those who know what you all are talking about. For us tinkerers it is a challenge.
I've been running MC 26 on a Raspberry PI 3b fairly stable for years. Things started getting wonky lately with glitches and 2 second pauses. Worked through a lot of suggestions from this forum, but didn't improve the situation. Thought an upgrade to a Pi 5 would settle these issues with its improved processing and RAM. Tried the easy route of slipping the SD card from the 3B to the 5, but no joy. Won't even boot. Seems like that should work, but maybe I'm missing something. Is there a more straightforward approach than all that line code (forgive me) referenced above to move to a new machine?

That sounds easy! Thanks. The 'curl" term is new to me. Can you define that?
