Do not do sudo apt-get upgrade that will destroy the existing volumio installation. Did you add the Raspbian sources to the sources.list ? If you follow the steps one by one Given in the project README it will work without an issue. I tested this on the latest Volumio image ( **VERSION:** 2.779 **RELEASE DATE:** 08-06-2020) ---

There was a small typo that was writing the Raspbian sources to the wrong list. I have fixed that. It should work now.
