Butler upgrade no longer works (win, command line)

Hello,

I have a daily script that auto-updates my butler exe:

butler upgrade --assume-yes

It now returns this weird error:

∙ Looking for head upgrades...
warning: Refusing to upgrade self-built butler without --force

I don’t really get what a self-built butler is 🤔 I re-downloaded latest win64 bin (head, built on Dec 3 2024 @ 23:09:26)

I could use --force, but this would make it self-update daily, even if nothing new was actually released.

This only started to happen this week to me. Is there another fix?

Thanks for the report. It looks like the version number didn’t get baked into the build of that release due to a bug in the build server so it thinks it’s “self built”.

I just pushed out a new versioned release, v15.24.0, that fixes this. You’ll have to do one --force upgrade to get that version from the version you’re currently on.

Thank you!

I'm glad I coincidentally saw this thread. I only visit these forums occasionally, so I could easily miss it.
