Configuration

Running HA supervised but unable to install OS-Agent daemon under Raspian on RPI4 using command line for latest update. Downloaded the following

os-agent_1.4.1_linux_armv7.deb

then used the command

sudo dpkg -i os-agent_1.4.1_linux_armv7.deb

which failed and returned message

error: ‘os-agent_1.4.1_linux_armv7.deb’ is not a debian format archive.

command uname -a returns armv71

Can anyone help?

Maybe the package was broken during the download.

  1. Open https://github.com/home-assistant/os-agent/releases/download/1.4.1/checksums.txt and look for the checksum for os-agent_1.4.1_linux_armv7.deb.

  2. Now open a shell (CLI) and go to the directory where you have downloaded os-agent_1.4.1_linux_armv7.deb to before.

  3. Enter the following shell command:
    sudo sha512sum os-agent_1.4.1_linux_armv7.deb

Does the output of above’s command from step 3 match with the checksum within the checksums.txt file from step 1?

If the checksums do not match, delete os-agent_1.4.1_linux_armv7.deb and redownload the file. Make sure the checksum matches before trying to install.
