Drush install from Debian package

We now follow the recommended Drush install procedure again, and use the latest published .phar by default. However, we do make alternative Drush versions available. To install the lastest Drush 6 from composer (as we did prior to Aegir 3.3), you can run the following before installing or upgrading the packages:

# echo aegir3-provision aegir/drush_version string 6.x | debconf-set-selections

Likewise, to use the latest dev build of Drush (not recommended), you could run:

# echo aegir3-provision aegir/drush_version string unstable | debconf-set-selections

Or to ignore Drush during upgrades of the debian package:

# echo aegir3-provision aegir/drush_version string ignore | debconf-set-selections

We are considering packaging Drush separately again:

Installing and upgrading

The canonical source of installation documentation is

http://docs.aegirproject.org/en/3.x/install/

Within those sections you'll find step-by-step instructions for performing both manual and automatic upgrade processes.

It is still imperative that you read the upgrade path and version-specific information and follow all version-specific upgrade instructions before trying to run the upgrade script or manual upgrade.

If you struggle to install or upgrade your Aegir system, you have a number of options available to you for getting help.
