I used the below commands to install the repositories and to install the sensu-go backend package.

# Add the Sensu repository

curl -s [https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/sensu/stable/script.deb.sh](https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/sensu/stable/script.deb.sh) | sudo bash

# Install the sensu-go-backend package

sudo apt-get install sensu-go-backend

But it is giving an error as follow:

“E: Unable to locate package sensu-go-backend”

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or solution to this.

Hey Aman, 👋

I am a community support volunteer here in the Sensu Community Forum. I ran through these instructions yesterday to install a new cluster for my homelab for testing:

> **[Upgrade Sensu | Sensu Go 6.10](https://docs.sensu.io/sensu-go/latest/operations/maintain-sensu/upgrade/#upgrade-to-sensu-go-650-from-any-previous-version)**
>
> Upgrade to the latest version of Sensu. Read this upgrade guide to learn about the latest features and bug fixes in Sensu Go.

I didn’t encounter any issues. I used Ubuntu 22.04. Which OS are you using? I feel like there may be something outside of Sensu that may be preventing this from working for you.
