Unable to Upgrade to Latest Version with APT on Ubuntu 20.10

See original GitHub issue

System information:

Operating system (distribution) and version: Ubuntu 20.10 x86_64 5.11.0-7620-generic
DBeaver version: 21.0.2
Additional extensions

Describe the problem you’re observing:

Each time I open DBeaver I get prompted to install the latest version (at time is 21.2.4) but running

sudo apt-get --only-upgrade install dbeaver-ce/now

Gives me the following message:

dbeaver-ce is already the newest version (21.0.2).
Selected version '21.0.2' ( [amd64]) for 'dbeaver-ce'
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

So my issue is I cannot upgrade to latest release version using apt package manager on Ubuntu 20.10

Steps to reproduce, if exist:

Install DBeaver 21.0.2 on Ubuntu 20.10
Try to upgrade to latest version using apt package manager

Include any warning/errors/backtraces from the logs

I had the same problem while testing. To solve it you need to first add repository like mentioned above

wget -O - https://dbeaver.io/debs/dbeaver.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://dbeaver.io/debs/dbeaver-ce /" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dbeaver.list

Then restart your machine and upgrade with sudo apt-get --only-upgrade install dbeaver-ce
