So, I’ve had a Raspberry Pi 4 sitting brand new in a box for a few years, and decided to install BirdNetPi on it yesterday.
It’s working like a champ, but because BirdNetPi needed a legacy version of Raspian, it’s got old software on it.
Is there any way to update the software (i.e. RealVNC) without updating the OS? There is no built-in software updater, and I seem to very easily break Linux every time I make an attempt to use it. LOL
As long as your apt sources (/etc/apt/sources.list) are set to bullseye (and not eg. stable) you won’t “accidentally” upgrade to bookworm. At least that’s how it works in Debian, I assume raspbian is the same.
