Update Plex Media Server to v1.15.1.791 Topic is solved

@bamyasi
Many thanks for your info+request.
We already found that and added the new binaries to our installer with v6.22: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2554
You can try out fresh Plex installs by applying the current Beta: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2632
On ARM we thought about forcing a reinstall to the new official binaries, but due to lack of info if migration is safe, we do not yet do that. However just some hours ago the dev2day repo (current ARM Plex installs) has been updated to v1.15 as well, so for now you can run:
to update to the new version.
I think with v6.23 we will hopefully find and implement a safe migration path to switch existing Plex installs on ARM to the official binaries and remove the dev2day repo instead.
Or we switch all the the official APT repo that is planned by Plex, although no ETA yet.

Thank you, @MichaIng! I have already followed the upgrade instructions and it worked just fine! No issues encountered and I now have PMS v1.15.1 running on my Sparky/DietPi system. Note, I did not try WolfganP's instructions for setting up LD_PRELOAD variable and removing /etc/ld.so.preload first since I did not notice any issues. Upgraded PMS is responding to requests without any interruptions and I would say it is even more responsive than the previous version 1.14.

Hi Plexfans 
I've done also the update.
Well I've had some Problems, I was able to solve.
If you have a "overide.conf" after update there is a smal problem with these tweaks
Have a look at directory /etc/systemd/system/plexmediaserver.service.d. In it is the place for override.conf; should containing the following:
note:
Spaces are allowed, if you use quotation marks ("). Also here you can tweak a new position of the Library - I've done so to an fast external raid system.
warning:
Some distros used UMask while others use Umask
Some distros want 4 octal digits, not the standard 3. -> 002 -> 0002
Enter the same override information as shown above
Save and exit the editor
Perform any required ownership / other work required ( and / or )
after that all should work
have a nice day

Just note that DietPi places an own systemd service override file that sets: Group=dietpi
This allows Plex to access files downloaded/handled by our offered download tools without manual permission adjustments required.
