Can't upgrade above Core 6.0.4 and Web 6.0.1 on Buster

I'm running Pihole on a pi 3B using Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster). If I run sudo pihole -up I'm now told that this OS is unsupported, but I can run sudo PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true pihole -r, and that "in this case, your previous run of pihole -up will have already updated the local repository."

The update script runs, but then reports

Core version is v6.0.4 (Latest: v6.1)
Web version is v6.0.1 (Latest: v6.2.1)
FTL version is v6.2 (Latest: v6.2)

Can I no longer upgrade above those version while still using Buster? Was this noted anywhere?

Beyond not updating to the latest versions, everything else works.

I will suggest you to temporarily hold your upgrade.

We are receiving a lot of complaints about FTL crashes and if you upgrade now, you will possibly end up with the same issue.

Please wait for the next release. After we fix the current issue we will release a new version. When that happens you can try to upgrade using PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true pihole -up.

Ironically the one part sudo PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true pihole -r did update to the latest version is FTL, to version 6.2. But it's working fine

Not everybody is affected by the FTL bug.

Can you please provide a debug token?

We are still trying to understand exactly what is causing the FTL issue just for some users and maybe your log can provide more information.

Now FTL 6.2.2 is out I used PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true pihole -up and everything upgraded as expected. Thank you for the assistance
