Upgrading Drupal

Hello,

I was in the process of upgrading Drupal 10.0.9 to 10.1.0 on Centos 7 with Apache 2.2, MYSQL 5.7, PHP 8.1.9.

I used the official zip for upgrading i.e Drupal 10.1.0 zip

Took backup of themes, sites , profiles, modules and deleted other older version files and then unzipped new 10.1.0 package.

It looks like Drupal 10.1.0-rc1 updated the dependency version of 'guzzlehttp/promises' from 1.5 to 2.0.

Unfortunately, 'aws/aws-sdk-php' used by some modules is not compatible with 'guzzlehttp/promises’ 2.0, and this blocks the update to 10.1 stable (10.1-alpha does install).

The AWS SDK devs have acknowledged the issue, but it will not be addressed until at least August.

[with apologies for my many posts over the last few days; this upgrade has been a bear.  I truly appreciate the help from the community.]
