Hi,
received below error when I run make dev.provision on Ubuntu 22.04 system.

Run npm audit for details.

Any help on the above error much appreciated.

@saching5990: Your devstack code is out of sync with your edx-platform code. If you are working off master, you’ll need to do a git pull to get the latest devstack code. This is due to removal from this update_db DEPR.

@Diana_Huang: Multiple people have run into this. It might be useful to have a doc around this. If we had [idea] Create document of devstack upgrade instructions · Issue #1144 · openedx/devstack · GitHub, it might be a good place to capture this. The troubleshooting doc could mention that this other doc should also be reviewed for temporary issues from not having an up-to-date devstack.
