I’m still unable to update the plexmediaserver package because anytime I do, it throws me the error down below. This only just started when a pretty significant update occured to Debian. I know the settings specifically have to be in a different place, in an override.d folder, but I just don’t know how to transfer them over SPECIFICALLY. I would REALLY prefer to not have to completely reinstall my server as every time I do, I lost my metadata and have to spend hours redoing all the work. I’d appreciate any help I can get because now even though I put the package on hold, so as to be able to update others on my system, it’s causing the update to hang up on the plexmediaserver package and aborting updates altogether
