Cannot update to 18.48

I have a virtualmin server that I recently updated from authentic 18.40 to 18.47. Now the system information panel reports that 18.48 is available. If i click the update button the panel goes blank and a red progress bar moves across the top, but in the end it still reports I am on 18.47 and 18.48 is available. I tried downloading the theme and then updating at Webmin Themes | Install theme. When I select "From uploaded file" and enter the file in the box beside it, clicking the Install Theme button does nothing. When I select "From ftp or http URL" and enter https://github.com/qooob/authentic-theme/releases/download/18.48/authent... in the box beside it, clicking the Install Theme button does nothing.

How can I update to 18.48?

That is strange.

In case you are logged in as root you can just paste to search field the following command and hit enter. Give it about 10-15 seconds to update.

!yes | /usr/libexec/webmin/authentic-theme/theme-update.sh -latest -no-restart

Afterwards Ctrl+Shift+R to reload the page.

It happens sometimes. In the future I will improve release updates. Probably will switch to Git command if available.

What do you mean by "paste to search field "? Is this a field somewhere in webmin/virtualmin?

Yes, in the navigation menu.

Search..

Where autocomplete is.

You mean between Services and System Settings?

No, I mean the search field.

When Webmin tab is active, it's at the very top.

Oops. I was looking at virtualmin on another server. This server does not have that. Can I do the same thing from the command line?

Ok, hadn't noticed that before. Did that and it worked. Thanks.

But I had to install Git before it would work.
