Hello Community,<br>
<br>
We have good news for you! The new releases (2.4.11, 2.6.5 and
2.7.5) fix this serious upgrade bug for the rudder-agent package and
many others. You can safely upgrade the the latest minor versions on
each branch.<br>
<br>
I'd like to remind you that the latest recommended version for
general usage is Rudder 2.7.5. Rudder 2.6.5 is the current version
tagged as "stable" for highly critical environments (see
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.rudder-project.org/site/documentation/faq/#what_is_a_stable_release">https://www.rudder-project.org/site/documentation/faq/#what_is_a_stable_release</a>
to understand what this means).<br>
<br>
We are sorry again for the inconvenience and thank you for your

Have a good day!<br>
