Ok copy and paste each individual line into the Terminal in your Putty session
I've posted this before but in the event of a HG meltdown carry out the following at the Terminal (your Putty window)
1. backup your configuration
2. uninstall current hg with the command....... dpkg --remove homegenie
3. completely remove the hg folder................ sudo rm -rf /usr/local/bin/homegenie
4. get your new release........
wget
https://github.com/genielabs/HomeGenie/releases/download/v1.2-stable.30/homegenie_1.2-stable.30_all.deb5. install new release................................... gdebi homegenie_1.2-stable.30_all.deb
6. restore your HG settings backup
This will get you V.30 without the spinning wheel
This is the process for a manual install and stops all that delay with the updater freezing.
