When doing a ./build update this error occurs.
ERROR: version of freetype not found in versions.txt! ERROR: version of zstd not found in versions.txt!

It doesn't matter if either freetype or zstd is installed, it will throw this error. Tested on Centos 7.9 and Alma 8.6.

Probably not a biggy, but I just wanted to report it.

Error is gone after doing a ./build update again (before and after it's still build 2945).
 
Yes it's odd. We had freetype installed on one server and zstd on another and on one server neither, but on all servers it threw this error.

When i doublechecked and did a ./build update again, no error anymore while the build version was before and after the update version 2945. Strange.
 
Something wrong with build script and versions.txt file.
"./build update" still keeps old versions.txt file. If deleting versions.txt, the build script downloads a new file, then missing some software in versions.txt. Even in https://files.directadmin.com/services/custombuild/versions.txt there is no directadmin version info, besides other.

I would suspect you are running old custombuild with new versions.txt. We have recently cleaned up a lot of packages that no longer needs to be tracked in versions.txt (including DirectAdmin). Latest script should be fine with latest versions.txt.

Starting DA version 1.643 (in beta release channel at the time of writing), custombuild script ./build and versions.txt are distributed together with DA updates. With this release DA, CB and versions.txt will always be in sync.
 
Yes, it looks like the old build. However, running "./build update" or "./build update_scripts", the build script is still not updated. I needed to delete /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild.tar.gz file, copy a new file from /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild, then the build script is updated. So, still something wrong with the build script.
 
What revision do you have now and what filemirror do you use? There where bugs a few weeks ago and some scripts couldn’t update anymore to the latest version.
 
rev: 2904. It doesn't matter with the file mirror. I am testing with CA, SG mirrors, still the same result, the build script is not updated. It keeps version from August 06.
 
Thats the version with that annoying bug. Try this

Code:
wget -O /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/build https://files1.directadmin.com/services/custombuild/2.0/custombuild/build
/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/build update

And set the filemirror option to an official directadmin one to avoid issues.

2945 is the latest one currently
