`Bug` How can I stop the Blackymass blueprint from updating to latest version when I do a update for ESPhome (QUESTION)

[smarthomefamilyverrips]

TFT Version

4.3.7

ESPHome Version

4.3.7

Blueprint Version

4.3.7

Panel Model

None

What is the bug?

As the subject says, now every time when I update ESPhome it also updates my NSpanel to the latest version of the Blackymass Blueprint, how do I prevent this from happening? Do I need to comment out something in the code?

Thanks Upfront!

On the remote_package, change from ref: main to ref: v4.3.7 (or any version you want to use). ref: main always points to the latest.

@edwardtfn after I update ESPhome to 2024.6.1 the "fix" you gave me for staying on v4.3.7 gives me the following error in logs when i try to read logs or validate the code

INFO ESPHome 2024.6.1 INFO Reading configuration /config/esphome/nsbathroom.yaml...

So it means it also not let me update the device to latest ESPhome version, I did see there is a fix for this in v4.3.9 but for that I need to be on HA 2024.6.x and I not updated to this as it have some issues that will affect my installation. So how I can still access logs and do ESPhome update while staying on version v4.3.7 ?

[edwardtfn]

You can update the ESPHome part to v4.3.9 and stay with Blueprint v4.3.7. That should work just fine.

Or you can wait for ESPHome v2024.6.2 where a fix for that issue will probability be included.
