We will appreciate any feedback regarding this release.
reForis is still in the experimental state. It was mention in other thread, however, it was caused by this error as some dependencies changed and reForis_JS build script failed, but the build of reforis proceed successfully.
This was something to easy to fix as it was necessary to just bump some dependencies in reForis to make it working again. This affected new/updated reForis packages. We haven’t postponed HBT release due to security vulnerability in gnutls, which I see it as the biggest priority for us no matter if some experimental things are not working at least in development branches including HBT.
If we would consider postponing things, which breaks we wouldn’t release any release because almost every time there is something to fix. For example, each build with every package takes 4 hours and we would release it to the testing branch today and the final release date would be postponed as well. It works in HBS for now and if there’s going to be another RC version, it will be fixed there, because it is fixed since yesterday evening in all development branches.
uhm…i noticed some issue ( torrent app did not want to open ports ) with upnp. With the 5.0x V on both Mox and Omnia.
Apperanlty that does not start, even if you start it in Luci, and in luci>software.
After doing it by hand with
/etc/init.d/miniupnpd enable
/etc/init.d/miniupnpd start
I had already noticed that it works, but what I mean is the possibility to select individual providers.
Currently, version 4.0.5 is installed on 5.0 HBS.
Release Notes 4.0.6:
add anti_ad blocklist source
made SafeSearch provider configurable, you can limit
SafeSearch to certain providers
I can confirm that I had some unspecified (did not have an opportunity to diagnose) problems with OpenVPN not working on 5.0.1 RC1. After upgrading to 5.0.1 RC2 and rebooting things are working again.
