Not Compatible After Updating to Debian Bullseye repositories

Hi,

I'm having the following messages if I try to install Piglow
` curl https://get.pimoroni.com/piglow | bash ~

This script will install everything needed to use
Piglow

Always be careful when running scripts and commands copied
from the internet. Ensure they are from a trusted source.

If you want to see what this script does before running it,
you should run: 'curl https://get.pimoroni.com/piglow'

--- Warning ---

The Piglow installer
does not work on this version of Raspbian.

and

` sudo apt-get install python3-piglow ~

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6-dev : Breaks: libgcc-8-dev (< 8.4.0-2~) but 8.3.0-6+rpi1 is to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
`

The problem occurs if you try to install Piglow after these chaanges:
edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list changing buster to bullseye; edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list changing buster to bullseye; sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade -y

Thanks

I think your system package management is just broken, rather than a Piglow specific issue. You're not even getting to the point where the package is trying to install.

Granted the first error is intentional, to avoid installers running on releases we haven't tested. Although in most cases they should be fine. Bullseye is going to be a barrelful of fun, whee!

This issue - pimoroni/hyperpixel4#149 - suggests you might have to run sudo apt-get --allow-releaseinfo-change update but I haven't got my systems into broken states often enough to know offhand how to fix it otherwise.

Hi,

In the end I reinstalled the Raspberry Pi OS, then Piglow and last I updated the system changing the repository list.

Thanks,
