indiserver crashes when connecting to eqdir mount

I have an AZ EQ6 that I earlier successfully controlled from indiserver on a Raspberry Pi, using the eqmod driver. But recently indi crashes or freezes when I try to connect to my mount. When the server crashes, the shell screen shows the message:

Child process 5519 died
2017-08-08T17:07:44: select(9): Interrupted system call
2017-08-08T17:07:44: good bye

The client I use is Ekos/Kstars on windows, but it also happens with PixInsight on windows as a client.

The problem persists after apt-get update & apt-get upgrade
What can I do to troubleshoot this?

It tells you have you a very old version of INDI running. Try running this:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade

Then after that's done, run the apt-cache policy command again and see what you have.

Just to get back to this issue. The upgrade loaded the newest version of indiserver. Unfortunately, there was another fault with my ubuntu software, which caused it to crash after a reboot. Had to reinstall from scratch. It's working great now, but I have to connect my eqdir cable directly to the RPi. Via hub, I get tty errors.
