Hi Mika, i did a test on my 5.x test cluster. I started with the dist-upgrade stretch -> buster, which went fine. But "updating" from the glusterfs packages stretch -> buster was not possible, i had to deinstall the stretch packages and reinstall the buster packages.
For me it looks like that it isn't important which one you do first. Regards, Hubert Am Mi., 19. Feb. 2020 um 09:50 Uhr schrieb Michael Böhm <dudleyperk...@gmail.com>: > > > Am Di., 18.
