ISO outdated?
Went to install Cachy on a friends computer and got a warning from calamares that “you are using an older version of CachyOS ISO”.
AFAIK the installer is an online installer that automatically pulls the latest release, hence it needing an internet connection to run.
Weirder still, I just downloaded the ISO yesterday.
Nevertheless, I thought maybe some update was pushed and something was wonky with the last version of the ISO that triggered the warning, and I went ahead and downloaded the ISO again today, direct from the Cachy website.
Same issue. So I go ahead with the installation anyway, and everything seems fine. No other issues, no post installation updates available.
Just the weird warning dialogue that I’ve never seen before.
I’m very much incline to think it’s nothing to worry about, but I’m curious if anyone else had this happen, or if they know what may be causing it.
