@magicfoxt
Thanks for your report. Jep the old versions are indeed missing.

@Fourdee
Did you recently remove the old binaries from the server? Although a dietpi-update fixes this, for we should keep the old ones to prevent such issues.

• mpd_0.20.11-1_ for pre v6.4

https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/blob/6e9c18b2ee3b89f3a5dc1092149866dfb3f18f38/dietpi/dietpi-software#L3724

• mpd_0.19.21_arm64.deb for pre v6.9 (?)

Could be also solved via symlinks, so the newest version will be installed. We should really safe the binaries/packages without version string, thus we can update them without needing to adjust download link and/or keep old binaries.

To fix now, I suggest you update DietPi to the current version.
If for some reason you want to stay on v6.3, you could do the following:
sed -i 's/mpd_0.20.11-1/mpd_0.20.18-1/g' /DietPi/dietpi/dietpi-software

We will resolve/recreate the old binaries on the server.

€: Okay, I resolved it for now via symlinks server side. I hope there is no reason for 0.20.18-1 not running on older DietPi versions.

Thanks for you reply and actions.

Probably due to server move and me trying to clean up the new one. Although updating DietPi resolves this and your symlink fix, however, my mistake.

@magicfoxt

If you would be so kind as to confirm this is now working? We can mark this as resolved.

[magicfoxt]

Yes, I confirm it's working for me and I did a dietpi-update to be up to date ;)
Many thanks for your support !
