How to update OpenLiteSpeed on Debian 12?

#1
Hello all,

I have installed OpenLiteSpeed + MariaDB + PHP 8.2 + WordPress + ModSec on Debian 12 using ols1clk.sh script. Everything is working correctly, however since 1 or 2 days ago, I am seeing that OpenLiteSpeed have an update (I see this in LSWS Admin Panel):

CURRENT VERSION:OpenLiteSpeed 1.7.18 New Release: 1.7.19 (current branch)

However I am not sure what is the proper way to update the OpenLiteSpeed. Performing apt update does not show any update for OpenLiteSpeed.
Performing the check to see from where the package for OpenLiteSpeed is installed I can confirm it is installed via the following repo:

APT-Sources: http://rpms.litespeedtech.com/debian bookworm/main amd64 Packages

Here is the information from apt info command:

apt info openlitespeed
Package: openlitespeed

What I am asking here is why in the admin panel I get the information that there is a new version, but in the same time the package for the new update isn't in the repo? And how to potentially update to the new version?

Thank you in advance.

Because OLS v1.7.19 package is not ready yet, if you want to try the binary, you could use the following command to upgrade it.
Code:
/usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/lsup.sh -v 1.7.19

Thank you. For a production machine I guess is better to wait for the deb package to be ready and pushed to the repo?
