I cant get liquidsoap to update to latest version
Update method :
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install liquidsoap gives me :

liquidsoap is already the newest version (1.3.3-2).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

The recommended way to install Liquidsoap is via the OPAM package manager. Packages provided by the repositories of OS distributions are often times a few version behind on lots of software projects until they release their next OS version.

You can also use the pre-compiled .deb files from the releases here on GH: https://github.com/savonet/liquidsoap/releases/tag/v2.0.3

Download the one matching your OS version and run dpkg -i on the .deb file.

Take a look at the install docs of Liquidsoap for more information on how to install LS via OPAM: https://www.liquidsoap.info/doc-dev/install.html

Hi @Vaalyn thank you for your response, I already have liquidsoap installed via OPAM and via apt-get command but when I type liquidsoap --version , I get :
Liquidsoap 1.3.3

What should I do?

It sounds like the systems package managed version of liquidsoap is taking precedence, you should remove this apt remove liquidsoap and reinstall LS following the instructions at https://www.liquidsoap.info/doc-dev/install.html
