Plex download page shows as latest public version 1.11.3.4803-c40bba82e from February 16, 2018
If I run sudo apt-get update && apt-cache madison plexmediaserver it shows as latest version

plexmediaserver | 1.10.1.4602-f54242b6b | https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public/main amd64 Packages

The server is configured as shown in the support article.
When will the repository be updated? I expected it to be always on the same version as the download page?

Seeing the same here - the repository still hasnā€™t been updated.

I gave up waiting and manually installed the update.

3

ditto. seeing the same here.

4

Fixed.

Please verify. Others are reporting it resolved.

For reasons we donā€™t understand (but will figure out), the 32 bit version entry updated but the 64 bit entry did not.

5

Iā€™ve done an apt-get clean, autoclean, update, and then upgrade. nothing. :-/ suggestions?

I am ubuntu 16.04 64bit.

6

Same for me, I still donā€™t get the update via apt-get

7

D$#m it. Iā€™m seeing it too.

gets out shovel and goes digging again

Does not look fixed from what I can tell, but I had already manually applied the update.

Attached is the output of ā€˜apt show -a plexmediaserverā€™ from my Ubuntu 16.04 based system. Am I remembering correctly that there was a 1.11.0.xxxx version that is also not listed?

not to sound harsh or single outā€¦

  1. The repos will NOT track what is available from the Downloads page right now
  2. The new Repos are being tested and any last minute issues resolved.

For all intents and purposes, please consider the repos Not Available until futher notice

OK, thanks Chuck, Iā€™ll watch the thread. Please make this a priority, lots of us count on apt-get to maintain our servers.

I am unclear as to why you guys have SO many problems with the repos. You guys STILL havenā€™t fixed the ā€œW: Conflicting distribution: https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public InRelease (expected public but got )ā€ issue and now weā€™re having to deal with this.

Iā€™ve been a commercial software developer since the '90s and Iā€™m pretty familiar with the systems and processes that have to be in place to reliably produce a deliverable. Itā€™s not as trivial as people sometimes think but the process is pretty well known and tested by now.

Iā€™d have to say this is likely a symptom of a combination of insufficient resources, poor management of processes, lack of reliable automation and testing, and so on. Systems donā€™t just stop working once they are in place so either they were never in place, or they were broken and the test suite failed to detect the breakage.

These things happen, I know, but on the user side itā€™s super frustrating. Iā€™ve installed Emby myself and Iā€™m seeing how it works now. Their repo seems to be working.

I hope the folks at Plex do sort this out, I like Plex.
