Think about it. Probably little support required. There was that notice about the new LinuxCNC version for 2020. I asked exactly how we were supposed to update and if it would screw up the old version. As yet I've not seen a posting that provides the step by step upgrade method to keep the old configuration and just update to 2.7.15 from 2.7.14. Ie the last posting that subject before it drifted into different methods of upgrading config files was: -------------- Wouldn't something like sudo apt-get upgrade linuxcnc-uspace restrict the upgrade to just LinuxCNC? Dave -------------- So Dave's question (and my original one) for something as important as updating LinuxCNC to 2.7.15 wasn't answered. I think the support for '-' to '_' would be just as simple. Just don't answer. Leave people hanging. Wouldn't want to buck a trend. ;-) John _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
