Hello 👋,
there is an error in the documentation under the section: NetBox Documentation > Installation & Upgrade > Upgrading NetBox. At the second step "3. Install the Latest Release" > "Option A: Download a Release".

the following Bash command has to be corrected:

# Set $OLDVER to the NetBox version currently installed
NEWVER=3.4.9
sudo cp /opt/netbox-$OLDVER/local_requirements.txt /opt/netbox/
sudo cp /opt/netbox-$OLDVER/netbox/netbox/configuration.py /opt/netbox/netbox/netbox/
sudo cp /opt/netbox-$OLDVER/netbox/netbox/ldap_config.py /opt/netbox/netbox/netbox/

NEWVER=3.4.9 needs to be OLDVER=3.4.9
