virtualmin pro to gpl

hello again,

So the 2nd server is now migrated..along with improvments/learning from the last migration but looks like the upgrade process with the pro version did not work out..the system upgrades to pro fine, after i do the re-check config.. it also confirms its pro..

The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:
  webmin-virtual-server
debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog
debconf: (TERM is not set, so the dialog frontend is not usable.)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Readline
debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Readline
debconf: (This frontend requires a controlling tty.)
debconf: falling back to frontend: Teletype
dpkg-preconfigure: unable to re-open stdin:
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 downgraded, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/4384 kB of archives.
After this operation, 6144 B of additional disk space will be used.
dpkg: warning: downgrading webmin-virtual-server from 6.02.gpl-2 to 6.02-2

Related issue: https://www.virtualmin.com/node/13952

Ah here we go, it looks like there are two Virtualmin GPL repos in that particular file.

Can you comment out these two lines:

deb http://software.virtualmin.com/vm/6/gpl/apt virtualmin-xenial main
deb http://software.virtualmin.com/vm/6/gpl/apt virtualmin-universal main

Then run "apt-get update".

After doing that, it should no longer downgrade to Virtualmin GPL.
