How to test RC branches

I’m trying to configure updates to update not from stable versions but from RC version.

I followed How to test Turris OS branches and releases guide and I’ve updated

/etc/opkg/distfeeds.conf

to RC versions in this way:

cat /etc/opkg/distfeeds.conf
src/gz omnia_base https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//base
src/gz omnia_hardware https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//hardware
src/gz omnia_lucics https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//lucics
src/gz omnia_management https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//management
src/gz omnia_openwisp https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//openwisp
src/gz omnia_packages https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//packages
src/gz omnia_php https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//php
src/gz omnia_printing https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//printing
src/gz omnia_routing https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//routing
src/gz omnia_telephony https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//telephony
src/gz omnia_turrispackages https://repo.turris.cz/omnia-rc/packages//turrispackages

After a few days I have mention it has been reverted from RC (… omnia-rc …) back to the stable version ( … omnia …).

Why?

The same for me! :slight_smile:

Because we bumped opkg version so all users will receive new feeds with new php and hw packages and because RC is binary identical it contains package feeds for deploy. We pushed a little fix, that should keep now in sync with whatever branch you have set - documentation will be updated.

Here it is. Although I would say that it might not tell you much.
