PLEASE be describable and clear. We need to understand the issue and being able to reproduce it.

By reporting the problem you also help every user in the world that can be affected too! :)

Thank you

I tried to update my 3.8.12 64-bit beta installation with the 14 updates in “Software 3.30.6”. That fails.

[I do not appear to be able to upload an image file and hence cannot paste the screen snapshot I took.]

The message (in a semi-transparent overlay window) indicated:

Unable to download updates:
E: http://repo.buster.elive.elivecd.org buster/main amd64 smb-admin amd64 3.8.14+git43bbo34df-6buster1 is not (yet) available )Something wicked happened resolving ‘repo.buster.elive.elivecd.org:http’ (-5 - No address associated with hostname))

“OK” I said to myself, “I should be able to download the 3.8.14 64-bit beta ISO and re-install.” That I do not seem to be able to do without coughing up more money for the download.

Which is annoying

My suggestion: If user has received a notification 3 times, They doN’t get one anymore

Problems after download.
Once the download is done, it seems the ISO just holds 15 k of files, hence it is impossible to install anything.
Donation.
Yesterday I made s mall donation, however, today, if I want to try to make a correct download again, it asks for a donation once more. Please, explain.
