Add apt update command to README #371

Closed htwyford closed 2 months ago

htwyford commented 2 months ago

The README suggests that the user download an old version of Raspbian. On this version, a sudo apt update is required before installing packages from apt-get. Otherwise, some of the packages 404 because the package servers changed branch names:

Thanks for your effort and this PR @htwyford . Yes, indeed, I can confirm this issue can be reproduced and persists on the required version too. This is enough for the README, however, the unittests also need to be adapted. I'll take care of that.
