    Yes.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Jellyfin the official way by using DietPi Software List.

Expected behaviour

Jellyfin should be installed properly.

Actual behaviour

Jellyfin is installed a very wrong/obsolete way.

For example, it does not even install the packages, which are shown in the documentation.

Then, it needs ancient fixes, like this one.

Extra details

Most basic DietPi installation. Only installed software from official DietPi Software List, like Jellyfin, Docker and OpenSSH.
