  To successfully complete the Linux Engine update, we have to ensure that DAT and MEDDAT packages are also available in the same branch in the Main repository and the Engine update task must have DAT, MEDDAT and Linux Engine selected. We have a uniform Engine update design across the versions. So, DAT is required to be part of the Engine update task along with MEDDAT.
