When upgrading to the current DietPi version, the install errored out on a Shairport sync issue. To get around this, I uninstalled the package and completed the upgrade. Now I can't reinstall the package, bug report below:

Many thanks for your report. Issue was that the package from the Debian repository has a newer version string of one of the dependencies than the Raspbian repository. I just fixed it, please retry:

cd /tmp
curl -sSfLO https://dietpi.com/downloads/binaries/stretch/shairport-sync_armv7l.deb
apt install ./shairport-sync_armv7l.deb
rm shairport-sync_armv7l.deb
