Running Debian 9.8 I get
root@defaultinstall:/home/richard# inxi -V | head -n1
inxi 2.3.5-00 (2016-12-02)

It didn't like the "a" nor "y" parameters.

I did "apt update" then "apt upgrade" and am now running Debian 9.13
  inxi -V | head -n1 re still reports inxi 2.3.5-00 (2016-12-02)


What should I read before attempting "inxi -U"?

I also have the 64 bit flavor of Debian 10 on a separate partition. I'll 
run them there and see what I'll get.

As time is available I'll attempt to install also the 32 bit Debian 10.

More later.
Thanks
