I have a self hosted installation here which is running v23 something, according to version.php. Is there an upgrade path to the latest version?

      Well, tried that.

      • latest.tar.bz - upgrade said “php 7.3 is too old, need >=8.0. Can’t install”
      • installed php 8.3, tried again - “8.3 is too new, can’t install”
      • installed php8.2 with all the frckng dependencies and tried again: “no way to upgrade, do it one by one. Can’t install”
      • downloaded v24 tarball. Guess what. Right. “php 8.2 is too new, can’t install, fucker”

      I was boiling by then. 8.1 had a dependency conflict with 8.2, so I had to remove 8.2 first.

      So many reasons to hate PHP.

      Running V27 now, after like 5 hours wasted.

      In short: I will watch the releases from now on. Lesson learned.
