yeah i agree completely, having a fall back version if an issue pops up on a production machine or changes not ready to be dealt with will be nice. i completely understand, i bide my time on my own machines often for upgrades.  and the upgrade does some awesome things!  :)

Hey all, Apologies for any frustrations, we had a bug sneak by that some of you may have experienced, an error traceback popping up.. that was from a update we thought we had resolved but it needs some more work. we have reverted a few things to get everything back to normal running, the develop and stable branches are both back up and running and the instructions to swap between both have been updated as of a few minutes ago, we discovred it requires a couple more lines to uninstall and then reinstall after changing the source list for the desired repository, but the instructions are up, simple and very clear on how to bounce between versions!

Thank you for your patience and underdstanding!

Probe Basic Develop version will become the stable release soon before 9-23-2024. this means that the new stable branch and the develop branch will have a short window of overlap until new changes are made and added to the repository. if you are still on the "current stable" version, this means that the next update to probe basic after the change will install what is currently the "Develop" version and the old version will no longer be available for installation via apt. old debs can still be used for installation, but we strongly encourage you to make the change as there are important update made to imporve functionality and add features. the new documentation we have added to the ProbeBasic website will be geared towards the most recent version. We gave everyone several months to make the change that pops up on gui startup update page and hope you have made the necessary updates. if not, the new documentation would be an easy way to accomplish this by reviewing the "Machine Configuration (ini, hal, files)"section showing what needs to be changed over. running apt update in develop mode will supply a new folder in the linuxcnc config folder that has the necessary updated files for the current develp version to work. please see the link below for guidance in transitioning into the latest release!

I'm also on the stable version and I'm also seeing this message.

I assume it applies to all users since the latest versions introduced some new settings that did not exist before and therefore and may require the config files to be updated.
