I installed FusionPBX a few months ago using the official quick installer, right before it switched from stable (4.4) to master.

Later, on IRC channel I learned that 4.5 has some important fixes, but upgrading from 4.4 to 4.5 was no easy procedure and an official guide was being worked on.

I just saw this "4.4 to Master" guide on the official website:
http://docs.fusionpbx.com/en/latest/advanced/version_upgrade.html

It seems very short and simple. Is that all it takes to upgrade from 4.4 to master?

I have another question: how does apt upgrade work with FusionPBX/Freeswitch? Asking this because the last time I ran apt upgrade, which seemed to upgrade many Freeswitch related packages, broke my system (error related to database, which I failed to troubleshoot), and I had to roll back to a previous snapshot. Is it unsafe to run apt upgrade on a FusionPBX system? Or are there procedures that need to be followed afterwards?

Thanks!

At the moment apt upgrading will give you Freeswitch 1.10. I think this is Ok now. There were a few problems with it but mark has fixed them I believe.

I hope so as tonight I am going from 3.8.3 to latest master and also from Freeswitch 1.5.15b to 1.10.

On top of this, to get there, I have to go from Debian wheezy to buster :)

This also means I'm going from Freeswitch source to packages which is a pain :S

Should I follow the short steps on http://docs.fusionpbx.com/en/latest/advanced/version_upgrade.html, then run apt upgrade?

What about the steps here http://docs.fusionpbx.com/en/latest/advanced/upgrade.html which is actually much longer?
