Hello all,

i’m trying to upgrade from 23.10 to 24.04 on debian 11.

i followed the instructions as described in this link.

But the upgrade fails:

# apt install --only-upgrade centreonj

...

Preparing to unpack .../15-libjmx4perl-perl_1.13-bullseye_all.deb ...

Unpacking libjmx4perl-perl (1.13-bullseye) ...

Found the package here. Installation not possible:

While I am writing this I have found a solution...so, this is not really a question anymore...

Found this helpful link.  I installed zstd and binutils, repacked it and installation is possible.

ar x libjmx4perl-perl_1.13-1_all.deb

zstd -d < control.tar.zst | xz > control.tar.xz

zstd -d < data.tar.zst | xz > data.tar.xz

ar -m -c -a sdsd /tmp/libjmx4perl-perl_1.13-1_all.deb debian-binary control.tar.xz data.tar.xz

apt-get install /tmp/libjmx4perl-perl_1.13-1_all.deb 

apt-mark hold libjmx4perl-perl

Afterwards upgrade to 24.04 works fine.
