I forgot to link the relevant discussions from github: Īnd I did see that the same forced upgrade is happening to mac users aswell It was installed thru your choices of how to manage your apt repo and to mingle the version 3 and version 4 as the same package. So I very much do not understand you position that you did not force ST4 on me. I would have had to know it was coming and manually removed it from the update list every week. ie apt install sublime-text-4.Īs it stands, To avoid having ST4 installed on my system. I would have expected for a major upgrade that had implications on, compatibility and licensing would require me to manually choose to install it. Looking at you your apt repo you you only provide the sublime-text package. It came on to my system in a weekly batch of security updatesĬommandline: aptdaemon role=‘role-commit-packages’ sender=’:1.430’ So to be clear you pushed ST4 in to your apt repo as a patch to sublime text. If this is truly goodbye, then good luck with whatever direction you’ve chosen! Whether with Sublime Text or some other editor, hopefully, you’ll find something that works well for you. Maybe some of the above points are helpful, but if not, that is fine. With all of that said, everyone is free to make their own choices, and if you feel ST4 no longer suits you, that is a personal choice and completely understandable.

This check is based on when the build was released. But all previous builds are still usable. You can roll back to a previous version if unhappy with the current.Īll new builds, if released more than 3 years after when you purchased your license, will let you know that your license is too old. Users are prompted, but not forced to install an update. Due to poor communication from the ST team (invalidating my license without warning or choice) I was very sad to have ST4 forced on me yesterday as part of a routine package update on my dev box.
