Regarding described troubles:
Hostname → We have fix and will be released soon
Regarding openssl warning, we are now working on update, probably will be fixed at TOS 7.1
Transition to nftables for packet filtering is the big one, in my view. But for OpenWRT it is meant to be relatively transparent.
For OpenWRT it’s also kernel changes but Turris OS’s kernels are specific anyway, so we might not see a kernel vesion jump between 6 and 7.
There will be no kernel change and we are also delaying switch to nftables to the later release. The goal is to have transition to 7.0 as boring as possible
Bug? Turris OS 7.0 on Omnia on branch HBT: I see ‘transmission’ running at 100% CPU. After I killed it with SIGTERM, it restarted and went back to 100% CPU use. Before I killed it, I did a quick strace() and once a second transmission was getting the time and calling fsync(), so not spinning on syscalls, though the fsync() call was failing with -1 EINVAL. I have since disabled the transmission service on my Omnia.
