Hot take? This should have been a major version update.

Yes project does not follow semantic versioning. But you can consider it it the 0.y.z state where it is even in the semantic versioning allowed to have breaking changes without major version increase.
I am generally of the opinion that version numbers do not matter at all until the author/distributor has GUARANTEED that they do. Until then they’re worthless, including in places where semver is supposedly enforced like NPM. If I had a penny for every NPM package that broke my project after removing the package-lock.json, I could retire.
Absolutely agree with you. Just because the Versioning looks like x.y.z does not mean it follows that convention. The most prominent example is probably the Linux Kernel Versioning.

Thanks for posted. I didnt even notice. I just blindly did a pull. Lesson learned.
I’m using the Immich app from TrueNAS, how do I properly update it? Or is it being taken care off by TrueNAS?
Edit: I asked on the TrueNAS discord for help and someone who already updated their Immich figured out how to fix the installation afterwards. I copy&paste the guide here:
This guide assumes that Heavyscript is installed and pgAdmin.
https://github.com/Heavybullets8/heavy_script
https://truecharts.org/charts/stable/pgadmin/-
Upgrade Immich to v.1.95.1.
-
If Immich fails to deploy check the logs
heavyscript pod --logs immich. If the logs complain that indexes need to be deleted continue with this guide. -
Access the shell for the postgres pod
heavyscript pod -s immich. -
Select the
postgrespod. -
Inside the pod run
envand record the password. Then typeexitto exit the pod. -
Get the DNS address and port for Immich postgres pod.
heavyscript dns -a -
Launch pgAdmin and right-click on
ServersselectRegister > Server. -
In the
Connectiontab put the hostname and port from step 6. The username is immich and use the password from step 3. -
Once connected create a backup by expanding
Servers > Immich > Databasesand right-click onimmichthen selectBackup.... Follow the prompts to create a backup. -
Right-click on
immichand selectQuery Tool. -
Use the following query to delete your indexes.
FROM pg_index X JOIN pg_class I ON I.oid = X.indexrelid JOIN pg_am A ON A.oid = I.relam WHERE A.amname = 'vectors';-
Stop Immich with heavyscript
heavyscript app --stop immich. -
Once all pods have scaled down start Immich
heavyscript app --start immich.
The SQL query will complain about a syntax error but it will work regardless. It just takes some time to redeploy immich.

Cool - was trying to get set up with v1.94, but had real trouble getting pgvecto-rs to work properly, pgvector seems much more stable and better supported and was a breeze to get running
Fuck… late for me. Thanks watchtower… wonder if this means an update will fix it or it’s just dead and needs manual intervention
