I have gitlab-ce 8.6.6 on Linux mint 17.3.

Gitlab-ce is now upto 8.11.2. If I do an apt-get install gitlab-ce then it tells me that I am already at the newest version.

When I cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitlab_gitlab-ce.list, it shows

deb https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/linuxmint/ rosa main

This address is no longer available. Running

curl -s https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bash

overwrites the above repository entry with identical entry and running

sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce=8.11.2-ce.1

gives me an error of

E: Version ‘8.11.2-ce.1’ for ‘gitlab-ce’ was not found

Is Linux mint no longer supported? Do I need to upgrade to Linux mint 18 (based on Ubuntu 16.04)?

  • Why do you select a specific version if you want to upgrade to latest? – Fairy Aug 26 '16 at 09:52
  • 8.11.2 is the latest and that command is what was recommended on the gitlab page. If I do a normal update or install then I already have the latest version (8.6.6) and if I specify the actual latest (8.11.2) then it is not found which suggests a mint problem (?) – John Aug 26 '16 at 14:32
  • `apt-get upgrade` should do it – Fairy Aug 26 '16 at 14:33
  • sudo apt-get upgrade gitlab-ce Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done gitlab-ce is already the newest version. GitLab information Version: 8.6.6 That made no difference. – John Aug 26 '16 at 16:13

And a few weeks after I tried this, it suddenly worked and showed up on update. So I presume that the mint repository went from gitlab 8.6.x to 8.11.x.
