user62502: I'm running my own bitcoin cash node. However, I'm getting stuck on the block where the network hard forked for the May 15th 32mb blocksize update. I believe the version of bitcoin abc I have installed is out of date, hence why it is stuck at block 530361. Here is the version with getinfo:
{
  "version": 160200,
  "protocolversion": 70015,
}

Is my node out of date? How can I upgrade my bitcoin abc node?
I tried:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

but nothing changes in the version or protocol version with getinfo. What should I do?

user5757: Yes, you need to upgrade.  You have version 0.16.2, and the 32MB block support was added in 0.17.0.  The latest release version is 0.17.2.
Your apt-get commands will only work if you originally installed bitcoin-abc from the apt package repository.  It sounds like you didn't.
You can check if you installed from a package at all with dpkg -l bitcoinabc.  If so then you can remove the package with dpkg -r bitcoinabc.  Otherwise you can figure out where the bitcoin-abc binaries are installed (using which or similar) and delete them manually.  Then install a new copy from scratch, either from the above-linked repository or any other way you choose.  (But this time make a note of what you did!)
