At least that seems to be how it is in OpenSUSE, I'm just a little bit baffled why freetype is missing and not installable from the repos in OpenSUSE Tumbleweed but is available and installable in OpenSUSE Leap. Oh well, I'll re-test that again at some point when I do another clean install. :)

If you can post some links to them I will add a manual workaround.

How should I upgrade from MC 31 to MC 32? Should I use the -u option first or ... ? In the past I've just done the install and manually edited the services definitions to start the new version as opposed to the old one but I have a feeling that's not really the right way to go about it.

`./installJRMC --install repo --service jriver-mediacenter` (for example) will install the latest version of MC32 (mediacenter32 package), migrate the library, and replace the existing service file with one pointing at mediacenter32. After you've confirmed everything is good to go, uninstall mediacenter31 using your package manager and optionally delete "~/.jriver/Media Center 31".

Maybe it's the way I did things but I had to go in and edit /lib/systemd/system/jriver-mediacenter@.service to change it from mediacenter31 to mediacenter32. I just ran a vanila ./intallJRMC to install/upgrade. I'm on Ubuntu 22.04.

You'll need to specify the `--service jriver-*` option or else the service files will not be (over)written. You can trigger it manually without reinstalling MC by omitting the --install option, for example: `./installJRMC --service jriver-mediacenter`
