[Software] Homebank package update, from 5.6.2 to 5.7.4

[scorpyous]

Hey guys..
The Debian 12 Homebank package is currently at version 5.6.2 (2024-04-11). However, the stable package (https://www.gethomebank.org/pt/downloads.php#gnulinux) is in version 5.7.4.
How can I update this package from 5.6.2 to 5.7.4 and be able to install the most current version?

When I try to install from the .deb package, this error appears: Dependency is not contentable: homebank-data(>=5.7.4-1)

Hello,

The version 5.7.4-1 is in the Debian Unstable repository:

Code: Select all

# rmadison homebank
homebank   | 5.2.2-1       | oldoldstable   | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
homebank   | 5.5.2-1       | oldstable      | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
homebank   | 5.6.2-1       | stable         | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
homebank   | 5.7.3-1       | testing        | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, ppc64el, s390x
homebank   | 5.7.4-1       | unstable       | source
homebank   | 5.7.4-1       | unstable-debug | source
homebank   | 5.7.4-1+b1    | unstable       | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x

The binary version 5.7.4-1 from Debian unstable repository cannot be installed in Debian Stable because of some missing dependency due to version upgrade and migration of other packages.

I downloaded the source code of 5.7.4-1 from upstream [1] and it builds on Debian Stable (after downloading required dependencies), but it requires some knowledge on how build programs and manually installing them.

Hope this helps.

thanks for your answer @Aki. I think it's better to wait a little then.
When it takes a lot of work for something simple, it gives me goosebumps...
