Hello.
Are you going to update /hipster to dev-a9 ? I think it is not supposed 
to work out of the box and reverting to latest /dev BE and updating it 
is the most straightforward way (151.8.1 packages deliver have a lot of 
libraries of different versions (newer or older than in /dev-a9), some 
packages were redesigned, some were marked obsolete.

Otherwise, you can try to create new BE, uninstall conflicting packages 
in new BE and try updating... Don't be surprised when it will not work.
