Cannot skip update

I guess that's because MinimServer was running 24/7 on the Pi and rarely got restarted, so the "unprompted" updates never occurred. The confirmation dialogs I saw were from MinimWatch which I assume always shows a confirmation dialog when a MinimServer update is detected.

This explains what you have been seeing. The unprompted auto-update happens only at startup because it is disruptive and would interrupt the normal operation of MinimServer if you are browsing your library or playing music.

Yes, this is odd and it shouldn't be happening.
