Just thought I'd report that I finally got around to updating both my
Ubuntu (two hops - 14.04->16.04, 16.04->18.04) and my LMS (7.8.1 ->
7.9.2) with no issues.
Thanks everyone

Anyway, I am thinking I should at some point push this to SBS 7.9.x but
I don't know how best to uninstall 7.8.1, leaving configurations and

I have an old box running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and what seems like
Squeezebox Server 7.8.1 (despite the fact that the web interface says
there is a new version 7.8.1 available). The info page says 7.8.1
though.
Anyway, I am thinking I should at some point push this to SBS 7.9.x but
I don't know
