(31/08/20)
API Changes:
- DietPi-Set_swapfile | Running the script without input arguments does not print the current swap file location and size anymore but will apply the settings stored in dietpi.txt, refresh the current swap file or apply defaults as fallback. Currently active swap files can be reliably checked via /proc/swaps or htop.
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- NanoPi NEO3 | Initial support for this SBC has been added.
- NanoPi R2S | Initial support for this SBC has been added.
- NanoPi K2 | Initial support for this SBC has been added.
- DietPi-Set_swapfile | Added support for zram-based swap space. Use "zram" as swap location to have a zram device created (persistently via udev rule) at /dev/zram0 and used for compressed in-memory swap space. The auto-size option "1" will result in a zram size of 50% of physical RAM size, else the MiB value will be used, as long as its smaller than physical RAM size. Many thanks to @rickalm for pushing this topic with an initial implementation: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3705
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | For NTFS mounts, the "big_writes" mount option is now added by default, which reduces CPU load and by this may increase performance. Many thanks to @balexandrov for suggesting this enhancement: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3330#issuecomment-654072107
- DietPi-Config | Added selection of schedutil and userspace CPU frequency governors. Schedutil is a modern dynmic governor which sets frequency tightly related and according to metrics of the CPU scheduling driver itself. Userspace is a no-op governor, i.e. it does not touch CPU frequencies at all which allows setting manual/custom frequencies according to own metrics or via scripts. Read more about native Linux CPU frequency scaling: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/pm/cpufreq.html#generic-scaling-governors
- DietPi-Config | RPi: Removed the option to switch the deprecated max_usb_current setting in config.txt. Max USB current is now enabled by default via firmware on all RPi models: https://github.com/raspberrypi/documentation/issues/1655
- DietPi-LetsEncrypt | Lighttpd: Updated our default SSL cipher to match newer standards, still intermediate and compatible with Debian Stretch (Lighttpd v1.4.45). Additionally our config file names have been adjusted to use lighty-enable|disable-mod and priority prefixes to allow ordering own custom configs/vhosts more easily around them. Many thanks to @PanosssD for making us aware of this: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3707
- DietPi-Software | Komga: FOSS home server for comics and mangas, now available for install as ID 179. Many thanks to @himura95 for providing the implementation: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3403
- DietPi-Software | Jellyfin: A FOSS web interface media streaming server available for install. Many thanks to all who voted for it: https://feathub.com/MichaIng/DietPi/+63
- DietPi-Software | Airsonic: It is now available on Debian Buster systems since Java 11 support has been added. Many thanks to @linxiaopi for pointing us at the required re-evaluation: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3732
- DietPi-Software | On the uninstall information prompt, the info has been added that uninstalling usually means that related userdata and configs are purged as well. Additionally "dietpi-software reinstall <ID>" is mentioned now as alternative to repair/update installed software. Many thanks to @kpine for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3550
- DietPi-Software | Python pip: We migrated this software selection to a Python3/pip3 install only, due to Python2 EOL in 2020/01. Where possible, dependant software selections have been migrated to Python3 builds, where not possible, Python2/pip2 is installed separately for now. We hope that most affected software titles will do Python3 releases soon, otherwise we will remove them form our portfolio, at latest in spring 2021. The strongest reason for this is that next Debian Bullseye (summer 2021) will not ship Python2 packages anymore.
- DietPi-Software | SABnzbd: Migrated to a Python3-based install.
- DietPi-Software | OctoPrint: On Debian Buster and up, migrated to a Python3-based install.
- DietPi-Software | Wordpress: Plugins can now be installed and the internal updater used OOTB without the need to manually apply correct file permissions first. Many thanks to @Joulinar for implementing this: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3720
- DietPi-Software | ProFTPD: On fresh installs, reverse DNS lookups are disabled by default now by adding "UseReverseDNS off" to /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf. This increases login speeds, in case dramatically, depending on reverse DNS server. Additionally file uploads can now be resumed by default via "AllowStoreRestart On" and members of the "dietpi" group have write access to uploaded files ("Umask 002") to increase OOTB compatibility with media and file sharing software. Many thanks to @bbsixzz for doing these suggestions: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3727
- DietPi-Software | HTPC Manager: Migrated to a Python3-compatibe fork initiated by @gmiranda (https://github.com/HTPC-Manager/HTPC-Manager), since the previous fork stopped development. Please help test, and when possible contribute to this project to keep it alive. We'll do minimal tests and assure the basic install and web interface works fine from Debian Stretch till Debian Bullseye.
Bug Fixes:
- General | Resolved an issue where enabling or disabling IPv6 removed the expected symlink at /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf with its actual target file. This happened when using dietpi-config network options and as well during firstrun setup when dietpi.txt choices are applied. The symlink is recreated, if missing, on all DietPi systems with next update.
- General | Resolved an external bug where the haveged entropy daemon failed to start on some ARM boards with the current version shipped with Debian Buster. On Buster ARMv7 and ARMv8 systems, a new package from Debian Bullseye is installed with this DietPi update, which contains the upstream fix: https://github.com/jirka-h/haveged/pull/7
- DietPi-Benchmark | Resolved an issue where file system benchmarks failed. Many thanks to @dbambus for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3672
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue where RPi onboard Bluetooth is attempted to be enabled on RPi models without onboard Bluetooth. On those models, now only the generic Bluetooth packages and services are installed and enabled. Many thanks to @TASSDevon for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3611
- DietPi-Software | Node.js: Resolved an issue where the installer internet connection check fails due to new nodejs.org HTTPS redirection. For now we use our own fork.
- DietPi-Software | HTPC Manager: Resolved an issue where install failed due to missing build-essential dependency.
- DietPi-Software | HTPC Manager: Resolved an issue where the internal updater failed due to missing git meta files.
- DietPi-Software | EmonPi: Resolved a failing primary UART activation on install.
- DietPi-Software | PHP: Resolved an issue where on pre-v6.23 systems the PHP upgrade from v7.0/7.1 to v7.2/7.3 did not work as expected. Many thanks to @illusive-c for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3670
- DietPi-Software | Xfce: Resolved an issue where the install and autostart of xcompmgr composition manager broke the xfwm4 internal one, leading to ineffective appearance settings and black borders around windows in certain cirumstances. Many thanks to @TamaTamaGoGo for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3665
- DietPi-Software | Pi-hole: Resolved an issue with Apache webserver, where CORS check failed if the Referrer-Policy header has been set to "no-referrer". If this is the case, the Pi-hole Apache config now sets it to the second strict "same-origin", which does not break the Pi-hole admin panel. Many thanks to @Phil1988 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3675

v6.31
(05/07/20)
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- RPi | Support for Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) has been added, including any other Debian pre-image on RPi. Many thanks to @FusionPlmH for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3570
- Odroid C4 | Support for this new Hardkernel SBC has been added to allow image creation based on Meveric's Odroid repository, including Kodi support.
- Network | "ping" can now be used by all users without any file capabilities, sudo or setuid. For this we allow all users to create native ICMP sockets which are available since Linux 3.X but disabled by default on Debian. Other distributions and systemd (upstream) have this enabled by default and for security and usability reasons we follow them: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/EnableSysctlPingGroupRange
- DietPi-Login | A new setting has been added which allows to skip the interactive GPLv2 license agreement on first login. Add/set "AUTO_SETUP_ACCEPT_LICENSE=1" in (/boot/)dietpi.txt in which case we assume you read and agreed the license text at least once. Many thanks to @mrbluecoat for reporting the urgent use-case of Chromium kiosk mode autostart without keyboard attached: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3326
- DietPi-Cleaner | Enhanced performance of the files cleaner if /mnt is skipped, especially in combination with large drives or network mounts. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for revealing the underlying issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3609
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | SSHFS entries in fstab are now detected and preserved. Many thanks to @notwork for doing this suggestion: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=7781
- DietPi-Config | Added Ethernet link speed selection to Network>Ethernet menu. The function and dietpi.txt entry exists for a long time but it was only exposed as first run setup option.
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Added generic support for all SBCs where the WireGuard kernel module is shipped together with the kernel package. This applies to most current Armbian-based images at the time of writing and will be the more regular case since Linux 5.6 has WireGuard natively integrated.
- DietPi-Software | Firefox Sync Server has been added to our software list, which allows to sync your Firefox bookmarks, history, tabs and passwords via your self-hosted server. Many thanks and all credits to @CedArctic for implementing this software title: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3471
- DietPi-Software | Folding@Home: Updated to latest v7.6.X, which includes an explicit option for prioritising COVID 19 projects: https://foldingathome.org/2020/04/17/new-foldinghome-software-with-the-option-to-prioritize-covid-19-projects/
This update is applied to all systems with DietPi v6.31, existing config and data are preserved.
- DietPi-Software | Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr: The /media directory as second common mount point can now also be used as download/media directory without manually adding it to the systemd units ReadWritePaths list. Many thanks to @ricardoandren for doing this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3561
- DietPi-Software | Samba Server: Changed default server-side file permissions from 0775 to 0664, hence files on the server are by default created without execute permissions now, which suits usual standards. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for doing this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3581
- DietPi-Software | QuiteRSS: Re-added the years ago accidentally removed install code block. If you ever wondered why there was no QuiteRSS after selecting it for install, now there will be. If it is marked as installed already, run either "dietpi-software install 22" or simply "apt install quiterss" to (really) get it.
- DietPi-Software | SqueezeLite: Updated to v1.9.7 and the service runs now as own user "squeezelite". Many thanks to @volpone for doing the update request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2386
Bug Fixes:
- System | Resolved potential issues due to missing /media directory on DietPi images, which is not used by default but is part of FHS and can hence be expected by Linux software, e.g. htpdate. Many thanks to @jokoren for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3558
- DietPi-Login | Resolved an issue where the script called itself from within the error handler subshell. Generally the error handler subshell must never call dietpi-login (and related autostart programs) and dietpi-login must never call itself from an interactive subshell. Many thanks to @nosyaardvark for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3583#issuecomment-643583664
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where moving the RootFS to an external drive did not include DietPi userdata. Many thanks to @sdomotica and @Joulinar for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3600#issuecomment-643261670
- DietPi-LED_control | Resolved an issue where LED triggers fail to become boot persistent. Many thanks to @FrostyMisa for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3636
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue on RPi3+ models where RPi3 non-plus overclocking profiles were shown. Many thanks to @lone for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=7804
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue on RPi4 2/4/8 GiB RAM models where the current GPU memory split was not obtained correctly. Many thanks to @FrostyMisa for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3636#issuecomment-652467249
- DietPi-Software | Logging choice: Resolved an issue where manually choosing logging options "None" and "Full" during firstrun installs did not uninstall DietPi-RAMlog as intended. Many thanks to @Pain-Patate for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3588
- DietPi-Software | GMediaRender+WireGuard: Resolved an issue where service start could have failed due to invalid network information. Many thanks to @fnsnyc for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3519
- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Resolved an issue where startup fails because of invalid default config values. Many thanks to @PiTech and @vorrac for reporting and fixing this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=7613, https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=7607
- DietPi-Software | Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr: Resolved an issue where those software services crashed once an hour due to faulty SQLite database log file clearing. Many thanks to @Taloth from Sonarr and all the others who reported, investigated and finally solved the mystery: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=7598
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Resolved an issue where WireGuard in client mode failed to start due to missing resolvconf. It is now installed together with WireGuard when choosing client setup. Many thanks to @yahoo456 for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=7783
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Worked around an issue where on some Odroids install failed due to missing symlinks to the Linux headers. Many thanks to @repomanz for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3577
- DietPi-Software | Ubooquity: Updated the installer to pull the latest version from Vae Mendis Software directly and enhanced permissions to better integrate with other software. Many thanks to @Mr.Roboto for doing this suggestion: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=7786
- DietPi-Software | Node.js: Resolved an issue where Node failed to start due to missing new libatmoic1 dependency. Many thanks to @larsno for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3614
- DietPi-Software | TigerVNC: Worked around an external bug where the VNC server crashed after client logout or failed to start at all. Many thanks to @Joulinar for investigating this issue and providing the workaround: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=25285#p25285
- DietPi-Software | XRDP: The above TigerVNC bug affected as well XRDP connections which have been resolved in the same turn: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3615#issuecomment-650559035

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v6.30
(10/05/20 Hotfix)
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- DietPi-Software | qBittorrent: Changed default download file permissions so that Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr/.. are able to manipulate the downloads after import. Many thanks to @compdealer for doing this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3524
Bug Fixes:
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue where on RPi3/4/Zero W onboard WiFi could not be enabled. Many thanks to @elitearmedforce for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3510
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue on Raspberry Pi where, after running DietPi-Drive_Manager, the root file system was mount read-only. Many thanks to @Adsouza98 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3511
- DietPi-Banner | Resolved an issue where non-root users were unable to download a new MOTD (message of the day). Many thanks to @PeterLacknase and @fnsnyc for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3505, https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3520
- DietPi-Boot | Resolved an issue where non-root users were unable to read or update DietPi-internal network info, which lead to e.g. error messages on login. Many thanks to @PeterLacknase for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3505
- DietPi-Update | Resolved an issue where on DietPi pre-v6.16 system some DietPi scripts were accidentally removed during update.

Check out all code changes of this release on GitHub: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3526
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v6.29
(03/05/20)
API Changes:
- Hardware info | The hardware info file /DietPi/dietpi/.hw_model should be now accessed at /boot/dietpi/.hw_model (see DietPi-RAMdisk removal below) and contains info now as NAME=VALUE like lines, which can be sourced from shell scripts.
- Flag/Info files | /DietPi/dietpi/.update_available, /DietPi/dietpi/.timesync_exit_status, /DietPi/dietpi/.network and /tmp/.dietpi_motd have all been moved into a new runtime directory: /run/dietpi/
- DietPi-Globals | The global variables G_HW_ARCH_DESCRIPTION and G_HW_MODEL_DESCRIPTION have been renamed to G_HW_ARCH_NAME and G_HW_MODEL_NAME. The new variables G_HW_UUID (DietPi-internal device UUID) and G_ROOTFS_DEV (RootFS device path) are available. On RPi additionally G_HW_REVISION, G_HW_PCB_REVISION, G_HW_MEMORY_SIZE and G_HW_MANUFACTURER are available, the revision code and its decoded information: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/revision-codes/README.md
- DietPi-Globals | G_RUN_CMD and G_ERROR_HANDLER have been removed and replaced with G_EXEC. Basically G_EXEC can be used the same way G_RUN_CMD was before and it is wider configurable to make manual G_ERROR_HANDLER usage obsolete where custom solution menu entries or command output parsing is required, e.g. to check for errors that do not produce exit codes. Visual change for regular DietPi users is that every error handled command can be retried, a subshell can be opened to investigate or fix the originating issue and, for experienced users, the command can be altered, e.g. if a download link has changed or an expected file has been moved manually to a new path. Further details can be found in the script: /boot/dietpi/func/dietpi-globals
- DietPi-Globals | G_FILE_EXISTS has been removed, as it was used only a single time in our code and usually it needs to be checked and handled explicitly, whether it is a file, directory, symlink with or without existing target.
- DietPi-Globals | The new global functions G_CHECK_CON and G_CHECK_DNS have been added to test general network connectivity and DNS resolver based on dietpi.txt settings.
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- NanoPi M4V2 | Initial hardware identifier (ID: 58) and support for this device has been added to DietPi. Many thanks to @purist doing this request: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6451
- NanoPi NEO Plus2 | Initial hardware identifier (ID: 57) and support for this device has been added to DietPi. Many thanks to @StephanStS for doing this request and creating an image: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2979#issuecomment-615487662
- PINE H64 | Initial hardware identifier (ID: 45) and support for this device has been added to DietPi. Many thanks to @unixino for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3286
- ROCK Pi S | Initial hardware identifier (ID: 73) and support for this device has been added to DietPi. Many thanks to @lwqcz for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3365
- Sparky SBC | Updated kernel drivers and SBC-specific service and config files
- General | Switched to C.UTF-8 as default locale and for DietPi scripts. It is shipped statically by APT package, international and more lightweight compared to en_GB.UTF-8.
- DietPi-RAMdisk | Removed from DietPi, which means that one can edit config files in /boot directory directly now. To keep performance for our scripts up, vmtouch is installed instead, which allows to lock files in native file system cache, configured to lock /boot/dietpi and /boot/dietpi.txt in cache by default. More info: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3288
- DietPi-LED_control | LED trigger choices are now applied via udev rules, existing settings are migrated on DietPi-Update. This allows to skip running this script at boot and simplify the preboot script, which both reduces boot time a bid. Additionally, applied LED triggers can now be reset to system defaults, which removes related udev rules. Since the script is now for interactive usage only, it has been moved to /boot/dietpi/dietpi-led_control and an alias has been added to call it from console via "dietpi-led_control" command.
- DietPi-Update | The DietPi auto update feature has been removed. Our updates require users attention, they often contain deeper changes, interactive elements and important information. We'll instead add an auto APT upgrade feature at a later release, similar to "unattended-upgrades" but with the possibility to also upgrade non-security patches, right into dietpi-update. Checking for available updates is done as before on a daily basis if not disabled via dietpi.txt.
- DietPi-Cron | Allows now to set the cron job output mail recipient. Cron mails are disabled by default since no MTA is preconfigured on DietPi. Additionally the execution times are now shown more clearly in 24h format.
- DietPi-Autostart | When selecting a non-root autologin user, some required tasks, like permissions, are now applied automatically, based on autostart option. This especially allows non-root users to launch Kodi without applying permissions manually. Many thanks to @sbrl for requesting this feature: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3351
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | GlusterFS fstab entries are now preserved. Many thanks to @Sudrien for implementing this addition: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3374
- DietPi-Software | Domoticz: open-source home automation platform is now available for install. Many thanks to @AndyB for doing this request a long time ago: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=222
- DietPi-Software | phpBB: Updated to v3.3.0 which has PHP7.3 support, hence can be installed on all hardware models and distro versions.
- DietPi-Software | Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr: Enhanced install and uninstall steps. On reinstalls, the install dir is left unchanged now, suggesting to use the internal updater instead, which is generally safer and now does not require a manual service restart (see bug fix below). In case of a broken instance, the install dir /opt/<name> needs to be removed manually now, to have reinstalls downloading and installing the newest binaries.
- DietPi-Software | Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr: The service now runs with hardened permissions, by default blocking access to directories outside of /opt/<name> /mnt /var/log/<name> and /tmp. If writing to other directories is wanted, the service file needs to be edited, easiest with "dietpi-services" > "<name>" > "Edit" and adding an additional "ReadWritePaths=/path/to/custom/dir".
- DietPi-Software | Chromium: Unlocked install on ARMv6 RPi models: RPi1/Zero/Zero W. Browsing performance will not be perfect, but for kiosk mode or light usage there are use cases. Many thanks to @kmplngj for requesting and testing: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3364
- DietPi-Software | myMPD: Updated installer according to next upstream release v6.2.0. Many thanks to @jcorporation for informing us about the new version: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3382
- DietPi-Software | MPD: Assured that UNIX domain socket and systemd unit for socket activation is present on Stretch systems. As well the obsolete cache dir symlinks in "/var/lib/mpd" will not be present anymore. Any custom scripts must use the absolute paths in "/mnt/dietpi_userdata/.mpd_cache" from now on.
- DietPi-Software | Pi-hole: Enabled support for Pi-hole v5. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for reporting the required change: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3391
- DietPi-Software | Shairport-Sync: Updated to new version 3.3.6, using self-compiled deb packages. Many thanks to @kmplngj for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3216
- DietPi-Software | HAProxy: Updated to newest stable upstream version 2.1.3 and the sysvinit service has been replaced with the officially provided systemd service. It will be reinstalled on all systems via DietPi-Update, your config files will not be touched on any reinstall.
- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Further rework and update of the default config file. Many thanks to @bbsixzz for this contribution: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3332
Bug Fixes:
- Raspberry Pi | Resolved an issue where RPi models could be incorrectly identified in case of warranty, overvoltage or OTP bits set in revision code. Many thanks to @LeeMenHin for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2979#issuecomment-598906749

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v6.27
(01/01/20)
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- FriendlyARM ZeroPi | Initial hardware identifier (ID: 59) and support for this device has been added to DietPi. Many thanks to @Stephan for creating the related DietPi image: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3221
- RPi | An updated USBridgeSig Ethernet driver, as provided by allo.com, will be applied via postinst kernel script, until it has been merged into official RPi kernel: https://github.com/allocom/USBridgeSig/tree/master/ethernet
- RPi4 | Added generic RPi4 revision code detection to include the new revisions [abc]03112 and potential new PCB v1.3 til v1.9 once released. Many thanks to @Joulinar for reporting the missing new revision code: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3257#issuecomment-565370856
- RPi4 | Since RPi4, bootloader and USB firmware is stored on an internal EEPROM, which is not updated/flashed by the firmware APT package installs automatically. The additional "rpi-eeprom" package comes with an EEPROM update script and boot service, which will now be installed on DietPi update and firstrun setup automatically, if RPi4 is detected. Those firmware updates include power consumption (hence heat emission) optimisations and enable additional boot methods, currently network boot and USB boot is planned as well. This was reason enough for us to implement it automatically for all RPi4 systems. Additionally you can actively install/update the EEPROM manually via dietpi-config > Advanced Options > Update RPi4 EEPROM firmware. For additional information, read the official docs: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/booteeprom.md Many thanks to @trueaspects for informing us about this important subject: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3217
- Virtual Machines | Intel/AMD CPU microcode update packages are not installed/purged from virtual machines. The CPU is provided by the host, hypervisors do not allow to update microcode from within the guest, reasonably, and if they did, this would be serious security and stability issue.
- DietPi-Globals | A new function G_TERM_CLEAR has been added to clear a current terminal view by moving content into scrollback buffer. The previous method erased current visible content on some terminal types. Many thanks to @rdslw for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1615#issuecomment-562928032
- DietPi-PREP | New images will have all man pages and documentation files for installed packages available. Those were removed until now, but prevented users from simply installing man-db to view man pages on the system, without reinstalling packages to restore those first. Many thanks to @smudgered for doing this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3259
- DietPi-Software | The general network check against first sources.list entry has been replaced by a pure connectivity test and separate DNS resolver test via ping. This solves an issue where sources.list parsing failed when [arch=...] was specified and allows better debugging. The sources list entries themselves are checked and error-handled by G_AGUP already. Ping target IP for connection test and domain for DNS resolver test can be set via dietpi.txt, default is Cloudflare DNS IP and domain which should be very reliable and fast all over the world. Many thanks to @lwqcz for reporting the issue and providing a solution: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3243
- DietPi-Software | TasmoAdmin: The administrative website to manage ESP8266 devices flashed with Tasmota for smart home systems is now available for install. Many thanks to @svh1985 for implementing this software title: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3103
- DietPi-Software | ownCloud: Enabled install on Buster, Bullseye and ARMv6 RPi models (RPi1+Zero). ownCloud 10.3 has been release with PHP7.3 support, hence it can be used with native distro PHP7.3 and does not require Ondrej's PHP repo which does not support armv6hf.
- DietPi-Software | Syncthing: Enhanced service by security hardenings and to allow internal updates and auto updates without failing to restart. Moved binary from /etc/syncthing to /opt/syncthing to match FHS and disabled file logging, which is an unnecessary overhead, since logs can be easily viewed via "journalctl -u syncthing". Changes will be applied to all installs on v6.27 update, existing configs won't be touched by this.
- DietPi-Software | NAA daemon: Latest version is now scraped from base URL and installed automatically. Many thanks to @Heroldgray for doing this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3191
- DietPi-Software | Home Assistant: Python3.8 will be installed for the pyenv from now on due to Python3.6 deprecation. Many thanks to @sdomotica for providing this information: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3219
- DietPi-Software | Home Assistant: When selecting for install, one will be informed about possibly long install/build times. Many thanks to @Gill-Bates for doing this suggestion to avoid users assuming their install process being stuck: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2897
- DietPi-Software | Home Assistant: Vastly reduced Home Assistant dependencies and install complexity. It does not run inside a virtualenv of pyenv anymore, since it has already its unique pyenv Python instance. pyenv is still required due to the large amount of specific module versions, required for HA and its integrations. The alternative would be a venv from a globally installed Python instance, but this requires further thoughts and discussion. The amount of development libraries and tools, installed via APT, has been updated and reduced to a minimum to build Python and Home Assistant inside the pyenv without errors and warnings. There is a slightly increased chance that certain HA components need additional development packages. To cover this, two new settings have been added to dietpi.txt: "SOFTWARE_HOMEASSISTANT_APT_DEPS" and "SOFTWARE_HOMEASSISTANT_PIP_DEPS". Add a space-separated list of APT packages and pip modules respectively, to have those installed automatically with Home Assistant. As well activating the pyenv environment from console is now easier possible via "source /home/homeassistant/pyenv-activate.sh" as user "homeassistant". Additionally "/home/homeassistant/homeassistant-update.sh" has been added, which can be called by any sudo-capable user to update Home Assistant easily.
- DietPi-Software | Node-RED: Access permissions to I2C is now enabled by default on RPi and other SBCs which ship a configured "i2c" group by default. Many thanks to @NastySpill for reporting an underlying issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6862
- DietPi-Software | Gitea: The latest version will now be pulled from GitHub automatically.
- DietPi-Software | Amiberry: Updated to v3.0.9, a large update from v2.25 with many improvements, see: https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/releases
- DietPi-Software | Amiberry: Since we ship a tailored SDL2 version, this has now been merged right into the Amiberry download archive and install directory, to not interfere with other system-wide installed SDL2 instances.
- DietPi-Software | Kodi: Add GPU-accelerated support for Odroid N2 via fbdev driver and special Kodi build, provided by Meveric. Many thanks to @ernero93 for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3255
- DietPi-Software | Koel: The latest upstream release will be pulled automatically now, v4.2.2 at date of writing. Dependencies have been updated accordingly, e.g. latest Koel supports latest Node.js v13.5.0.
- DietPi-Software | NoMachine: Updated to latest version 6.9.2 and switched to URL with no version string, which allows us to update downloads on-the-fly without code changes. Download URLs from official website have been simplified and follow some logic, but there are no "latest" URLs available and older versions are not kept, hence we must go on hosting those packages on dietpi.com.
- DietPi-Software | Allo web UI: Updated to version 13.1, which mostly fixes some compatibility issues with DietPi v6.27 and Debian Buster systems. For details, see: /var/www/allo/CHANGELOG.txt
- DietPi-Software | phpMyAdmin: The APT package install has been replaced by an upstream archive download. This allows us to ship the most current version on all distro versions and avoids incompatibility due to PHP meta packages being pulled as dependencies by the APT package. Install on Buster and Bullseye is possible now by this and incompatibility with concurrent ownCloud and phpBB has been resolved. On Stretch this resolves an issue due to new PHP7.4 being pulled by "php" meta package from Ondrejs repo. Many thanks to @symlagom for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3284
Bug Fixes:

- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where, after transferring the root file system, the script itself could revert the fstab entry, since a reboot was not forced anymore since v6.22. This change has been reverted, hence a reboot cannot be skipped to avoid any fstab revert and inconsistency with cmdline. Many thanks to @DutchFlash for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6645
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where, in rare cases, all drives were mounted as R/O on boot. Many thanks to @samolego for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3268
- DietPi-Autostart | Resolved an issue where non-interactive script calls, e.g. done by dietpi-software installs, reset prior made auto login user choices. Many thanks to @zedrdave for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3242
- DietPi-Config | RPi: Resolved an issue where PSU noise reduction state always shows "[Off]". HDMI output will now be toggled immediately, hence no reboot is required for changes to take effect. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3187
- DietPi-Software | ownCloud/Nextcloud: An important security fix has been applied to our ownCloud/Nextcloud Nginx configs. This has been merged into our other GitHub branches as well, hence all fresh installs wont be affected. Read more about it: https://nextcloud.com/blog/urgent-security-issue-in-nginx-php-fpm/

Many thanks to @slopsjon, @tyjtyj and @pakikje for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6531, https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=20408#p20408
- DietPi-Software | Google AIY: Resolved an issue where fresh install failed to start due to missing permissions
- DietPi-Software | Grafana: Resolved an issue where install failed on RPi 1/Zero Buster systems. The fix includes an update of Grafana to the latest official version for those models. Many thanks to @TBail for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3213
- DietPi-Software | Jackett: Resolved an issue where the internal updater broke the Jackett instance. Automated updates can be safely enabled again. Many thanks to @ngosang for providing the workaround: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2593
- DietPi-Software | Pi-hole: Resolved an issue where choosing to block public admin panel access on Nginx failed. Many thanks to @anubis-genix for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3024#issuecomment-550342684
- DietPi-Software | Java: Resolved an issue where install on ARMv6 RPis (1/Zero) on Buster system failed, since Java 11 is not ARMv6-compatible. On these system, Java 8 is now installed instead. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3182
- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Resolved an issue where rTorrent and the webserver didn't have sufficient permissions to read and write ruTorrent web UI settings and data. Many thanks to @notDavid for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3244
- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Updated deprecated commands and variables in our default config file. Many thanks to @bbsixzz for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3273
- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Resolved an issue where ruTorrent DarkBetter theme was not installed. Many thanks to @bbsixzz for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3271
- DietPi-Software | Amiberry: Resolved an issue where the binary fails to execute on Odroid XU4. Many thanks to @wasu111 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3181

- DietPi-Software | Allo web GUI: Resolved an issue where web access fails due to wrong permissions. Many thanks to @Heroldgray for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3264
- DietPi-Software | GMediaRender: Resolved an issue where service fails to start due to missing permissions. Many thanks to @fnsnyc for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3263
- DietPi-Software | GMediaRender: Resolved issues due to limited binary features by using new own compiled binaries, based on gmrender-resurrect v0.0.8. Many thanks to @fnsnyc and @hifitime for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3263, https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3246
- DietPi-Software | Nextcloud: Resolved an issue where install fails due to a bug in Nextcloud 17.0.2. DietPi will now install Nextcloud 17.0.1 until the bug has been fixed. Updates from web UI are still possible, this only affects the fresh install. Many thanks to @DevinCharles for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3275
- DietPi-Software | Redis: Resolved an issue where service start failed in some cases.

Many thanks to @dankerthrone for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3291
As always, many smaller code performance and stability improvements, visual and spelling fixes have been done, too much to list all of them here. Check out all code changes of this release on GitHub: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3290
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v6.26
(15/10/19)
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- General | Support for Debian Jessie has now been fully dropped from DietPi code. Jessie systems are moved to the "jessie-support" Git branch and will stay on v6.25. Critical bugs, if reported, may still be fixed, but DietPi-Software related issues and new features will not be handled anymore by the DietPi code team. However, everyone is free to open pull requests against the jessie-support branch: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/tree/jessie-support
- General | Initial support and definitions for Debian Bullseye, the new Debian testing version, have been added to DietPi code. You can now create Bullseye systems via DietPi-PREP: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3009
- General | DietPi scripts, i.e. dietpi-software, will not overwrite you custom permissions in /mnt/dietpi_userdata anymore. Instead required permissions are now only applied for individual software titles that are being installed. Besides saving you time to re-apply custom permission, this as well enhances security in some cases where software installers/archives apply/contain stricter per-file/dir permissions. Many thanks to @JJGO and @johnvick for suggesting this enhancement: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2641
- General | On first boot, when DietPi-Software finishes the initial setup, it is now assured that all APT packages, including firmware, are upgraded by performing an "apt-get dist-upgrade"/"apt full-upgrade". Since it includes upgrades regardless of underlying dependency and conflict changes, which in rare cases can perform unwanted removals, we do not do this on regualar DietPi-Update/Software runs. But on first boot, without additional packages installed yet, it is safe. Many thanks to @cmessin1 for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3098
- Rockchip | Experimental GPU acceleration support for RK3399 SoCs and ASUS Tinker Board has been re-enabled.
- RPi | The haveged daemon has been replaced with rng-tools, an alternative which does not work on all devices, but has been proven to work on RPi, is default on Raspbian and uses less RAM on idle.
- RPi4 | The default CPU temperature limit (temp_limit) has been raised from 65°C to 75°C, since this device runs significantly hotter then previous RPi model. Many thanks to @trueaspects and @Trunkzeh for doing this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3019, https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3151
- DietPi-Globals | The environment variable $G_USER_INPUTS has been renamed to $G_INTERACTIVE, which describes better what it does. When setting this to "0", DietPi scripts will run non-interactively, i.e. all whiptail dialog prompts and other tasks that require manual user input are skipped. Note that this is not required when running scripts from cron jobs or systemd units, since those have no STDIN attached which makes DietPi scripts run non-interactively automatically. Scripts will stay backwards-compatible, thus respect $G_USER_INPUTS for a while, but please adjust your scripts or docs where you make use of it. Many thanks to @AtkLordOverAll for contributing this change: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3041
- DietPi-PostBoot | /var/log/boottime is not created anymore. Please use "systemd-analyze" to get much more accurate and detailed boot information.
- DietPi-PostBoot | The pre-login banner has been slightly adjusted: Default login credentials are now only shown on first boot, since the information is obsolete when user changed the password. As well an info has been added that one needs to hit <return> to show the username input field.
- DietPi-Banner/NordVPN: DietPi-NordVPN has a new input command to print the current VPN connection state: "dietpi-nordvpn status". This has been implemented as well into DietPi-Banner to optionally show NordVPN connection state on login automatically. Many thanks to @svh1985 for implementing this feature: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3084
- DietPi-NordVPN | Added options for connection up/down scripts, e.g. to implement killswitches, answer inbound connections from outside local network correctly, safe and track connection uptime, and similar tasks. Many thanks to @svh1985 for implementing this feature: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3047
- DietPi-Config | Audio Options: Menu has been reworked. Audio capabilities (ALSA) can be enabled and disabled as a separate option. If enabled, generic sound card auto-detection has been added to the bottom of the list for all devices. This allows the selection of generic sound devices on all SBCs, e.g. if unknown to DietPi or if our hard-coded card/device IDs are wrong due to additional attached audio hardware.
- DietPi-Config | Some /etc/modprobe.d/ configs are merged to less files and mostly prefixed with "dietpi-", to allow easier differentiation between Debian/pre-image and DietPi files.
- DietPi-Config | RPi: Update certain config.txt settings to match new firmware version. WiFi and Bluetooth is now disabled via related dtoverlays, which should further reduce hardware and firmware loads.
- DietPi-Config | Added overclocking profiles for RPi4. Many thanks to @aftensleuk for request and valuable suggestions: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6225
- DietPi-Config | RPi: Re-added previously removed options to adjust initial turbo for CPU frequency on boot and to lower the idle CPU frequency. The related firmware issues have been fixed with a recent update: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3147
- DietPi-Config | RPi: Removed the option to adjust CPU frequency limits. On RPi the dynamic CPU governors only jump between "arm_freq" and "arm_freq_min", hence those limits should be set via overclocking profile and the newly re-added "ARM Idle Frequency" option.
- DietPi-Config | RPi1/Zero: OpenGL modes/drivers can now be successfully selected/installed from display resolution menu.
- DietPi-Software | TightVNC: Since Stretch, TightVNC has been replaced by TigerVNC, thus the install option has now been removed from code.
- DietPi-Software | SDL2: Since we ship a tailored build for Amiberry, the general install option for SDL2 has been removed, instead it will be installed/updated along with Amiberry. If you require SDL2 for any other purpose, please install the "libsdl2-2.0.0" package from APT repository: https://packages.debian.org/libsdl2
- DietPi-Software | Pi-hole: Logging to /var/log/pihole.log is now disabled by default, since it is not required in usual cases. Query logs, shown in web UI, are stored in database. This might also resolve possible pihole-FTL crashes in combination with DietPi-RAMlog and DietPi-Logclear. Many thanks to @kuerious for reporting and @Mcat12 for providing helpful information on this topic: https://github.com/pi-hole/FTL/issues/614
- DietPi-Software | Pi-hole: Webserver configs have been added to block public access to the blocking page, optionally as well to the admin panel and generally block access to dot files/dirs (.git*) inside the admin panel directory. Parts are inspired by the official Lighttpd config, provided by Pi-hole: https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/blob/master/advanced/lighttpd.conf.debian
Many thanks to @AtkLordOverAll for his effort to implement this for Lighttpd initially + the choice during install to block public admin panel access as well: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3054
- DietPi-Software | OpenVPN: Rsyslog is not installed anymore together with OpenVPN server. Logs are available via "journalctl -u openvpn", all system logs via "journalctl". If you require persistent logs, uninstall DietPi-RAMlog via dietpi-software and make the journal boot persistent via: mkdir /var/log/journal
- DietPi-Software | Gogs: On ARMv7 and x86_64 now the latest version from GitHub is installed. Reinstalls will upgrade the version while preserving existing settings. Many thanks to @LazyLama for doing this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2999
- DietPi-Software | Webmin: Install is now done via official APT repository to allow easier updates. To apply this to all systems, it is reinstalled on DietPi-Update to v6.26. Additionally the dependency on rsyslog has been removed. The Webmin logging panel still depends on rsyslog, but the overhead shall not be applied to all systems by default. Instead users can now decide themselves, whether they need to see system logs on Webmin, or not, and in case apply custom logging settings as well.
- DietPi-Software | Amiberry: Enabled support for RPi4 and Odroid XU4. Thanks to @midwan for providing the binaries: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3104
- DietPi-Software | myMPD: Updated install steps to avoid deprecations of the current upstream version. As well the service will not run as primary group "dietpi" anymore, which is only required for software that creates media files. Many thanks to @jcorporation (developer of myMPD) for providing this information as well as a smooth build script that updates old instances gracefully: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3097
- DietPi-Software | WiFi Hotspot: Since on some systems, a hostapd service mask was found, it is now unmasked on install. As well our custom compiled binaries are now only installed on RTL8188C* devices where no special Realtek hostapd package is available. Many thanks to @symbios24 for reporting the service mask issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2962
- DietPi-Software | Fail2Ban is not handled by DietPi-Services anymore, since the brute-force protection shall stay active during updates, installs, backups etc. The service is now started by systemd on boot and stays active until shutdown. Additionally on fresh installs the default jail.conf is optimised for the set "route" ban action: "blackhole" is now the route type, which does not send any respond to blocked requests.
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Support for RPi1 + RPi Zero (ARMv6 models) has been enabled by switching to Bullseye as source repo, which is available for Raspbian as well. Additionally on RPi, the WireGuard kernel module is now rebuilt automatically after kernel package upgrades. Many thanks to @johnnyt83 for suggestion RPi1/Zero support and his efforts to test the source build: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2997
- DietPi-Software | Gitea: Version 1.9.4 will be shipped from now on. Many thanks to @msongz and @minhphuc429 for implementing this update: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3138, https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3154
- DietPi-Software | Aria2: Runs now as it's own user "aria2" and group "dietpi" with home dir and config file moved to /mnt/dietpi_userdata/aria2/. Besides satisfying security standards, this allows other download and media related software, provided by dietpi-software, direct access to Aria2 downloads without the need for custom permission changes. Additionally the current session (download states) are saved on service stop and every 60 seconds, to prevent current tasks from being lost on reboot or power loss. Aria2 will be reinstalled with v6.26 to apply these changes. Many thanks to @msongz for implementing and testing the session feature: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3139
Bug Fixes:
- General | Removed an obsolete OpenMediaVault cron job and binary that was leftover on at least one of our images (NanoPi NEO2) and is not part of the current OMV packages, thus save to remove in every case. Many thanks to @kt1024 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2994
- General | Resolved an issue where install of required APT packages for certain scripts could fail in the rare case that APT lists are outdated and old packages are not available in the repo anymore. Many thanks to @Paulisper for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2996
- General | Resolved an issue on some Buster systems where console-setup fails on boot to apply keyboard layout and console settings. Many thanks to @jaxjexjox for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2912#issuecomment-532100542
- Rock64/RockPro64 | Resolved an issue where DietPi could not obtain the active network adapter and IP, if onboard Ethernet was used. This is because of a kernel-related bug, which seems to cause Ethernet connection instabilities as well in cases. A workaround is applied to all new Rock(Pro)64 images and via DietPi-Update. Many thanks to @svh1985 for reporting this issue, as well as searching and testing the workaround: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3066
- DietPi-Update | Resolved an issue where the script did not exit on error: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3127
- DietPi-Login | Resolved an issue during first run setup, where DietPi-Software was called with mostly wrong whiptail menu dimensions. This lead to info prompts and menus being quite small, in particular the "Install" menu entry, that one needs to select, being only visible when navigating to the bottom. Many thanks to @pbecks1963 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3053
- DietPi-NordVPN | Resolved an issue where the server menu could have wrong entries or even fail, if foreign files were placed inside the config directory. Many thanks to @svh1985 for reporting this issue and implementing a fix: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/3047
- DietPi-Run_NTPD | Resolved an issue where changing time sync mode or mirror, from within time sync error prompt, led to a concurrent script execution. Many thanks to @Sopor for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3010
- DietPi-Services | Resolved an issue where single service calls failed if their names contain certain special characters, like dots. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3059
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue on RPi where I2C baudrate was not applied correctly, thus selection was ineffective. Many thanks to @flashspys for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2966
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue on RPi where headless mode did not disable all video outputs and framebuffer as intended, since the used config.txt setting has been removed with recent firmware versions.
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue on RPi4 where SDTV/composite video output did not happen when selecting the related resolution menu entries.
- DietPi-Config | On RPi4, vc4-kms-v3d option has been removed from display resolution menu, since the full KMS driver is not supported on RPi4 currently.
- DietPi-Software | Resolved an issue where the script tells you that SQLite will be installed as pre-req, while actually a desktop is required and LXDE will be installed.
- DietPi-Software | X11/Kodi on Odroid C2: Resolved an issue on Odroid C2 where Kodi failed to start. GPU drivers and X11 config will be updated during DietPi-Update to cover this issue. Many thanks to @alexeylutskov for reporting this issue and testing the fix: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3028

- DietPi-Software | XRDP: On Stretch, new the version from backports is installed. This resolves a critical issue where /etc/profile was not loaded to the session and, due to incomplete $PATH variable, important system binaries were not available on terminal emulators which broke many install and upgrade tasks. Furthermore this resolves an issue where install and connection of XRDP failed if IPv6 was disabled. Many thanks to @aspinks for the debug session which allowed us to track the issue down to its root: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3017
- DietPi-Software | Sonarr: Resolved an issue where install failed due to an outdated APT repository key. Many thanks to @GregoryDosh and @GulyFMG for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/3029
- DietPi-Software | Plex Media Server: Resolved an issue where DietPi-Update failed for versions prior to v6.23, due to the obsolete Plex Media Server dev2day repository being offline now.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v6.25
(03/07/19)
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- System | By default the "haveged" entropy daemon is now installed on all DietPi systems and patched with v6.25. It assures the pool of random bits /dev/random stays filled by using additional sources of randomness. This solves a bunch of issues, including hanging or very long boot times, very long service (re)starts or timeout failures and on Buster hanging network access. Especially affected is PHP7.3-FPM but as well VPN servers and WiFi hotspots and potentially many other network or cryptography related tasks. More information on this topic: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2806
- System | Initial RPi4 support has been added to the code and some other rare RPi models are now detected correctly by their revision codes. Note that a new Buster-based image is required to support RPi4 and further work on DietPi-Config to support new RPi4 features. Full support is expected with DietPi v6.26, testing images can be found here: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2935#issuecomment-506389899
- DietPi-FirstBoot | First boot setup steps have been moved into a separate script and systemd unit. This allows further cleanup of the regular boot process and more targeted debugging and development. Many thanks for @FredericGuilbault for implementing this enhancement: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2791
- DietPi-Autostart | When choosing an autostart option that does not require a manual UNIX user login, the autologin user can now be chosen (which was always "root" previously). This can be applied automatically on firstrun setup with the new "AUTO_SETUP_AUTOSTART_LOGIN_USER" setting within dietpi.txt. If the user does not exist, is a system user (UID < 1000) or does not have a valid login shell, it will be reverted to root. Many thanks to @FredericGuilbault for suggesting this feature: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2926
- DietPi-Globals | G_OBTAIN_CPU_TEMP(): Added support for Core2Duo CPU temperature to be printed on e.g. DietPi-Banner and "cpu" command output. Many thanks to @OstrovCity for posting the required information: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2563#issuecomment-494388278
- DietPi-Service 2.0 | Combines dietpi-process_tool into dietpi-services. Adds I/O policies, single/global service control and much more: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2786
- DietPi-Process_tool | Has been replaced with DietPi-Services. Existing saved options will no longer be available, please use 'dietpi-services' to apply required process_tool options with the upgraded system.
- DietPi-Explorer | Disabled opening of files in nano under select a file/folder mode.
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Added the option to change the I/O scheduler per drive. Many thanks to @Generator for pointing us onto this topic: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2233
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Services are not stopped directly at start of this script any more. Instead this is done only on critical tasks, e.g. transferring of DietPi userdata, the swapfile or RootFS. Further increased navigation speed by re-running the drive detection loop only when affecting changes have been made, and, by several other code enhancements.
- DietPi-Config | APT Cache: We added new options to "dietpi-config" > "Advanced Options" > "APT Cache" to disable the APT cache or move cache, repo lists and/or package download dir to RAM. By default we disable the APT cache, which saves 50 - 100 MiB disk writes on each "apt-get update" call, but slows down "apt-cache" calls: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2840
- DietPi-Config | RTC mode: When selecting this option, a menu with additional info is shown instead of just toggling the state. Many thanks to @Sopor for this suggestion: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2826
- DietPi-Config | Audio Options (RPi): I-Sabre-K2M/Q2M sound card drivers are now integrated into the RPi kernel. These are now enabled on selection instead of compiling the drivers from source: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2690
- DietPi-Software | Mycroft AI FOSS voice assistant is now available for install. Many thanks to @LexiconCode for the initial request and all other requesters, FeatHub voters and testers: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1701
- DietPi-Software | Resolved some misleading outputs when having VNC Server or GPU using software installed. Many thanks to @mtpiercey for reporting these issues: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2870
- DietPi-Software | Deluge: Lowered UMask (007 => 002) to allow read access from e.g. custom Samba shares without "dietpi" user. Many thanks to @radsb for reporting the limited access: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5847
- DietPi-Software | FFmpeg: On RPi, the new APT repo package will be installed, which now supports RPi hardware acceleration and is some subversion newer then the package hosted on dietpi.com: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/869#issuecomment-490047405
- DietPi-Software | Gitea: Current stable v1.8.X will be installed now and existing instances will be upgraded during DietPi-Update. Many thanks to @msongz for implementing this: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2881
- DietPi-Software | myMPD: Current upstream version will be installed now and existing instances will be upgraded during DietPi-Update, which requires a config file reset. A backup to recover custom settings from will be created: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2156#issuecomment-497513129
- DietPi-Software | O!MPD: Current upstream version will be installed now and existing instances will be upgraded during DietPi-Update. Existing config and database will be preserved. YouTube and Tidal support is added now by default. Many thanks to @ArturSierzant for giving valuable feedback and suggestions: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2884
- DietPi-Software | Ampache: Reinstalls will now preserve existing configs and database.
- DietPi-Software | Medusa: mediainfo is now installed to enable Medusa gathering meta data and resolving related warnings in log. Additionally, on Stretch and above, Python3 is now installed and used, as recommended by Medusa for a while. Many thanks to @bluesmoke for suggesting this enhancement: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5945
- DietPi-Software | Node-RED: "sudo" permissions are now enabled by default: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2910
Bug Fixes:
- Network | Resolved an issue where an unintended Ethernet/WiFi IP value was shown if no IP is assigned.
- DietPi-Boot | Waiting for network timer now includes the start of 'ifup' for the device. This is to speed up boot time by threading the ifup command and allowing the wait timer to be more accurate.
- DietPi-Login | Resolved an issue where login leads to immediate logout if DietPi scripts were not loaded to DietPi-RAMdisk location. Many thanks to @LexiconCode for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2841#issuecomment-494567292
- DietPi-Update | Resolved an issue where after update and reboot DietPi-Banner still shows update available with identical current and server versions.
- DietPi-Cleaner | Resolved an issue where the cleaner ran into an endless loop if "Files" cleaner was used. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2837
- DietPi-PREP | Resolved an issue where ifupdown (networking service) was autoremoved, which broke running network connections.
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where idle spin down selection would always default to 241, instead of currently active value: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2852
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where eCryptfs fstab entries were not detected and preserved correctly. Many thanks to @johnvick for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=18428#p18283
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where transferring the RootFS to a BTRFS formatted drive fails. Since BTRFS support is not natively built into the RPi and Odroid kernel, a warning prompts and the transfer is aborted. Many thanks to @dieitpi for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=18164#p18164
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where on x86_64 systems a specific Seagate drive, attached via USB, does not spin down on idle. Many thanks to @tomillr for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2905
- DietPi-Config | (RPi) Resolved an issue where selecting sound cards with vc4 enabled would result with incorrect ALSA card index: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2173
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue where selecting any locale (language) failed, which does not contain "UTF-8" in its name. DietPi only supports UTF-8 locales, but those available with UTF-8 only, do not have the ".UTF-8" suffix in their name.
- DietPi-Software | Resolved an issue on Buster systems that were dist-upgraded manually from Stretch, where DietPi-Software failed to obtain the global software password. Many thanks to @MattL0 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2937
- DietPi-Software | Resolved an issue where audio software failed to use hardware acceleration on Buster. Users need to be part of the new "render" group on Buster to have permissions. Many thanks to @tomillr for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2916
- DietPi-Software | MotionEye: Resolved an issue on ARMv6 where install failed due to PHP Buster repo conflicts. Many thanks to @infinitejones for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2888
- DietPi-Software | Ampache: Resolved an issue where database connection failed when a custom global software password (other than "dietpi") was chosen. Many thanks to @WarHawk for reporting this issue and solution: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=15771#p15771
- DietPi-Software | Desktops: Resolved an issue where PolicyKit failed when logging in via LightDM as non-root user, which broke shutdown and reboot options from logout panel. Many thanks to @magus7091 for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5850
- DietPi-Software | Transmission: Resolved an issue where settings applied via web UI did not survive a service restart or reboot. Many thanks to @chosen_too and @th0maz for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=17927#p17927
- DietPi-Software | Docker: The official Docker installer now supports Debian Buster and a workaround for the still missing Raspbian Buster support has been implemented. Many thanks to @Qarasique for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2891
As always, many smaller code performance and stability improvements, visual and spelling fixes have been done, too much to list all of them here. Check out all code changes of this release on GitHub: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2950

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v6.24
(15/05/19 Hotfix)
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- DietPi-Software | Emby + Plex Server: Enabled access to DietPi network mounts and media files by default. Many thanks to @ilgrank for reporting this missing feature: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2801
- DietPi-Software | ownCloud + phpBB: Support had to be disabled on ARMv6 for now until we either find a way to install PHP7.2 (with all required modules) outside of sury.org (which does not support ARMv6) or those enable support for PHP7.3 (expected with ownCloud 10.3 and phpBB 3.3).
Bug Fixes:
- DietPi-Software | PHP: Resolved a critical issue where PHP install/update broke ARMv6 devices since Debian armhf does not support ARMv6 like Raspbian does. Many thanks for the fast user reports: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2794
- DietPi-Software | PHP: Resolved an issue where APT upgrade can fail due to insufficient sury.org APT repo preferences. Many thanks to @sifyer for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2795
- DietPi-WiFi-Monitor | Resolved a failure due to false concurrency check. Many thanks to @GulyFMG for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2802
As always, many smaller code performance and stability improvements, visual and spelling fixes have been done, too much to list all of them here. Check out all code changes of this release on GitHub: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2803
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v6.23
(12/05/19)
Jessie support:
- The support for Debian Jessie is fading constantly by software titles and Debian itself, increasing the effort for us to work around the raising issues: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2332
- As a result we move Jessie systems to a dedicated "jessie-support" branch. Next DietPi v6.24 will still be merged into this branch as well, but for following updates it depends on how much additional related issues we face.
- We highly recommend to migrate to Stretch as fast as possible.
- Odroid C1: We have updated the image to Stretch based on Armbian 4.18 kernel. Existing Jessie installations will be moved to the jessie-support branch: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2561
Buster support:
- DietPi-Software | Resolved the last failing installs on Debian Buster systems by either fixing or disabling them: phpMyAdmin and Tomcat8 are currently not available on non-RPi Buster systems.
- DietPi on Debian Buster x86_64 systems can be considered as compatible and stable now. On ARM devices some last software install tests are outstanding, especially on Raspberry Pi with Raspbian particularities. We will ship experimental images for testing purpose soon.
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- DietPi-Banner | Added support for DietPi message of the day (MOTD). This is enabled by default, however, can be disabled. Checks for latest MOTD once a day.
- DietPi-Banner | Always prints the local IP during boot mode display: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2681
- DietPi-Benchmark | Increased default survey RootFS and RAM benchmark sizes. 100 MiB (from 10 MiB) for RootFS. RAM is 1/4 of available. This is ensure a more accurate calculation of throughput when we divide bytes against time, to obtain the MB/s result. Benchmarks now also run at Nice -19 and realtime I/O with priority 0 (highest).
- DietPi-Cleaner | Added a confirmation prompt, before removal of offline docs and man pages, as this may cause APT issues in some circumstances. Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2751
- DietPi-LetsEncrypt | When applying to Lighttpd, "webroot" authentication is now used instead of "standalone". This allows the auto-renewal service to succeed while Lighttpd is running. Many thanks to @minnux for testing this method: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2680#issuecomment-480095449
- DietPi-Arr_to_RAM | With v6.18 we silently added a new script (for Stretch and above) that allows linking Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr database files to RAM, increasing access performance, reducing disk I/O and avoiding constant external HDD spinning due to the very regular access to these files. This script has gone through some rework and polishing and can now be enabled to automatically link those databases to RAM on boot and store them back to disk on shutdown. For more details read: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5828. Many thanks to @Dr0bac for providing valuable input and testing the development progress constantly: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2689
- DietPi-Drive_Manager | eCryptfs and vboxsf (VirtualBox shared folder) fstab entries are now preserved. Many thanks to @johnvick and @Phil1988 for suggesting: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2078, https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2202
- DietPi-PREP | The script execution can now be fully automated via environment variables. Many thanks to @FredericGuilbault for adding this feature: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2756
- DietPi-Config | Added support to toggle Intel CPU turbo/boost mode. Requires Intel CPU that supports the feature.
- DietPi-Config | G_CHECK_URL: Added ability to change the connection attempts and timeout, before DietPi URL checking assumes a dead link and failure: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2717
- DietPi-Config | Serial/UART device handling has been reworked. Serial login consoles can now be toggled for every found serial device individually. On RPi the primary UART can be completely disabled and warnings are prompted if Bluetooth and login console are to be enabled both on ttyAMA0. On update existing systems will be patched so that serial-getty masks and enabled instances are removed if the related serial device does not exist. This solves some error messages during boot.
- DietPi-Config | Network Adapter menu has been cleaned up. Proxy variables are now sourced from "/etc/bashrc.d/dietpi-proxy.sh" and proxy setup outside of DietPi scripts is detected.
- DietPi-NordVPN | Added ability to toggle auto start/connect during boot.
- DietPi-Software | Subsonic: Package has been updated to v6.1.5. Many thanks to @spectrumcomputing: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2702
- DietPi-Software | PHP: All systems will be upgraded to PHP7.3 for security, performance, compatibility and consistency across distro versions. Ondrejs (official Debian PHP maintainer) PHP repository (sury.org) is used for this on Jessie and Stretch, so general functionality and trustworthiness is assured. ownCloud and phpBB users will stay on PHP7.2 for where PHP7.3 is not yet supported. Your PHP configurations will be backed up and webserver configurations adjusted to match the new version. Nextcloud 13 and earlier, especially Jessie systems, will be upgraded to Nextcloud 14 to allow PHP7.3. A full Nextcloud backup will be done, your data, settings and custom apps will be preserved. We strongly advice to further upgrade to the current Nextcloud major version via its web UI updater.
- DietPi-Software | Subsonic: Runs now as limited user "subsonic". This change is as well applied to existing installs via patch during DietPi-Update: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2705
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard APT packages are now upgraded when running "apt-get upgrade". Many thanks to @swrobel for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2671
- DietPi-Software | LXQt, GIMP, XFCE4 Power manager: Now available for installations.
- DietPi-Software | Plex Media Server: All systems are migrated to the new official APT repository. This allows easy and consistent upgrades via APT. On ARM systems the until now used 3rd party dev2day repo receives no further updates and will be shut down soon, which makes the migration mandatory. Many thanks to @WolfganP for keeping us informed with news about Plex v1.15 and the new APT repo: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2655
- DietPi-Software | Logitech Media Server: Now installs the latest nightly version, since no public "releases" are done. As well the systemd service has gone through some update and now runs as limited user to align with other media servers, enhance security and follow the defaults of the DPKG package. The update/change is applied to existing installs via DietPi-Update as well. Your settings/date are preserved.
- DietPi-Software | Nextcloud Talk: We do not apply (D)TLS settings to coTURN any more. Since WebRTC is encrypted by itself there is no security benefit. More importantly Nextcloud Talk does not make use of the required TURNS protocol, so there is absolutely no point to apply these settings. The (D)TLS feature is meant to allow passing firewalls that only allow encrypted traffic. WebRTC, although encrypted, might not pass such firewalls since the encryption is not on transport layer. For those how are interested in further details and discussion: https://github.com/coturn/coturn/issues/33, https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/issues/257
- DietPi-Software | SABnzbd: Install latest version via GitHub master and skip adjusting existing config file. systemd unit and dependencies have been adjusted to match minimum requirements and official documentation. The update will be applied via DietPi v6.23 patch as well. Many thanks to @19eighties for reporting the outdated version: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2762
- DietPi-Software | Jackett: On non-ARMv6 devices the new (v0.11+) standalone (non-mono) binary is installed now. This is applied on DietPi-Update as well, preserving your settings: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2773
- DietPi-Software | Blynk: Enabled support for Debian Buster by using the new Java 11 binary.
- DietPi-Software | UrBackup: New version 2.3.8 is installed now. Many thanks to @DeathIsUnknown for informing us about the update: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2783
Bug Fixes:
- System | Debian has vastly reduced support for Jessie systems from their official APT repository. The limited possible list entries are applied during DietPi-Update. Many thanks to @BerndKohl for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2665
- DietPi-Set_swapfile | Resolved an issue where on first boot (and when calling the script manually) the swapfile creation is attempted on target file systems that do not support it (BTRFS). Many thanks to @mzramna for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/719#issuecomment-484205696
- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue where proxy settings would not be correct after a reboot. Many thanks to @stephantual for reporting this!: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2704
- DietPi-Update | Resolved an issue where on older images first run update didn't finalise as intended, leading to several first run setup issues, depending on the image age. The fix has been applied outside of the releases since only the online part of the updater is affected: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2684
- DietPi-Login | Resolved an issue where login as non-root user could result in a "sudo" password prompt or endless failure loop due to missing sudo permissions. Many thanks to @xsak for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2667
- DietPi-Software | Emby Server: Resolved an issue where download failed if the latest release does not contain a Debian package. Many thanks to @niblettr for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5755
- DietPi-Software | Transmission: Resolved an issue where double quotes in global software password caused a service startup failure. Many thanks to @Drew80 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2484#issuecomment-480675168
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Resolved an issue where IPv6 connections did not work with enabled IPv6 forwarding. Many thanks to @schnuckz for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2691
- DietPi-Software | Subsonic: Resolved an issue where FFmpeg transcoder might not have been applied correctly. Many thanks to @spectrumcomputing for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2697
- DietPi-Software | Amiberry: Resolved an issue where no login prompt was present when exiting Amiberry from fastboot mode. Many thanks to @Trigger58 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2703#issuecomment-482471440
- DietPi-Software | Logitech Media Server: Resolved an issue where certain plugins failed due to missing "libio-socket-ssl-perl". Many thanks to @noobian and @Edward for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5824

v6.22
(23/03/19)
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- Security | The DietPi-Software global password is now stored with enhanced security which also resolves a warning on Buster systems: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2213
- System | /etc/bashrc.d/ now allows ".bash" file ending as well. We merged all contained DietPi scripts into one (/etc/bashrc.d/dietpi.bash): https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2636
- General | DietPi scripts now use the lightweight standalone "7zr" command to handle 7z archives. This allows us to lower the DietPi core package dependency from "p7zip-full" to "p7zip".
- RPi | DietPi does not set or change "framebuffer_depth" in config.txt any more which defaults to 16 which works in every known case. It will be re-added as fast as we find a case where another value is required.
- DietPi-Banner | You can now customise which options to display during system login. These include CPU temps, WAN IP, free disk space and more! Simply run 'dietpi-banner': https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2627
- DietPi-NordVPN | Added sent/received usage stats for VPN tunnel.
- DietPi-Sync | Sync will now abort if the source directory is empty. Merged dry run into real sync, as this was performed anyway to do required free space check. When "Sync" is selected, after dry run the user is presented a summary and given the option to view the detailed dry run log, cancel or continue with real sync. Some other minor fixes and enhancements have been applied as well. Many thanks to @midnightwatcher for doing this request: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=5588
- DietPi-Software | Emby Server: Now installs the latest version automatically (currently 4.0.2) which as well offers a native ARMv8 package: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2525
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Switched from 10.8.0.0 to 10.9.0.0 IP addresses on fresh installs to avoid doubled IP range use with OpenVPN. Many thanks to @XRay437 for pointing this out: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2491#issuecomment-461366739
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Changed the way users are advised to add multiple clients, to enhance concurrent connections. Many thanks to @curiosity-seeker for reporting and testing this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2491#issuecomment-462419860

- DietPi-Software | Deluge: Reworked the installer to better match the Debian package defaults and recommendations/examples from official docs. Deluge now runs as user "debian-deluged", logs have been moved to "/var/log/deluged/" and the init.d service with its traces are removed, which are all pre-generated by the Debian APT package. The systemd units have been adjusted according to the official Deluge documentation. These changes are applied as well to existing installs during DietPi update, the old user "deluge" and obsolete configurations are removed. Your active configurations and data are preserved, the installer has been as well enhanced to better handle existing installs and never touch existing configs. Note that access to the Deluge console has to be done as user "debian-deluged" (sudo -u debian-deluged deluge-console). A related access issue to the console has been fixed by this as well. Many thanks to @seanmikhaels for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5525

- DietPi-Software | DietPi-RAMlog: When installing/enabling RAMlog, the /var/log mount point will be now cleaned before mounting the tmpfs on it, while preserving the existing logs metadata. This resolves a warning on early boot stage and frees the disk space consumed by the disk log before.
- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Runs now as user "rtorrent" and creates files as group "dietpi" with 775/664 permissions. Enabled Buster support and enhanced config file handling on reinstall: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2633
- DietPi-Software | Plex Media Server: Now installs the latest version automatically (currently 1.15) which as well includes official ARM binaries. Many thanks to @WolfganP for informing us about this new release: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2553

v6.20
(28/01/19)
Image line-up:
- We removed Jessie images from our download server (besides for Odroid C1), since we see no advantage to use them anymore. Existing Jessie systems are still supported, but we encourage all users to consider switching to a fresh Stretch image by times: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2332
Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
- DietPi-PREP | Removed the option to install a Jessie system. Removed the option to install DietPi on top of a Wheezy image, since an upgrade over two distro version would be required, which is not reliable. It is still possible to install DietPi on top of a Jessie image, where a distro upgrade to Stretch would be applied: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2332
- General | RPi-Update: In our effort to improve system stability, and, offer software installations which build custom modules (e.g. WireGuard), we can not longer support systems with non-stock APT kernel installed. If "rpi-update" is installed during update, DietPi will prompt and return you back to stock APT kernel.
- General | Moved the remaining conf/* files located on DietPi-RAMdisk to /var/lib/dietpi or into DietPi-PREP, and removed /DietPi/dietpi/conf completely. These files were only used once or never, thus have no business inside the RAMdisk.
- DietPi-Config | RPi: Improved available options for HDMI boost setting: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2350
- DietPi-Config | RPi: Headless display mode is now applied via undocumented config.txt setting. Removed/Replaced some other obsolete config.txt entries: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2402

- DietPi-Software | ownCloud/Nextcloud: Updated webserver configs to match current recommendations and security hardenings. Only applied on new installs. To apply manually, run "dietpi-software reinstall 47" (ownCloud) or "dietpi-software reinstall 114" (Nextcloud). You will be informed about the new configs, which then need to be manually moved to overwrite the old ones, since we don't want to mess with manual changes: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2361

- DietPi-Update | Added optional ability to automatically update DietPi, when updates are available. Please note, this is disabled by default.
- DietPi-Sync | Removed the compression option, which has no effect on local sync, since files are not stored compressed, but only transferred compressed through remote sync protocols, which are currently not offered by DietPi-Sync.
- DietPi-RAMlog/Logclear | The internally rotated LetsEncrypt (CertBot) log files are now removed, hourly with DietPi-RAMlog enabled, or when executing DietPi-Logclear manually.
Bug Fixes:
- DietPi-Software | LXDE: Installation will no longer enable the weather application. This is due to Yahoo API hard coded into LXpanel, being taken offline: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2416#issuecomment-456805925

(12/09/18)
Many thanks to PINE64, for becoming our 1st Patreon Legend and supporting our project! As one of their rewards, you will see PINE64 displayed on login via the DietPi-Banner.
Known issues / In progress:
DietPi-Software | Open Bazaar: Installation updated to server version 2, which now runs via go language. At the current state, client OB connections are failing, still under investigation: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1090#issuecomment-419613346
Changes / Improvements / Optimizations:
General | Changed Survey and Bugreport uploads to use ssh.dietpi.com (previously IP): https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2022#issuecomment-415470064

v6.14
(21/08/18)
Changes / Improvements / Optimizations:
DietPi-Software | GLOBAL_PW: The global password used by DietPi-Software is now encrypted with AES-256, removed from '/boot/dietpi.txt' and stored securely on rootFS with root:root/700 access only: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2021

DietPi-Software | A new unified download&install function is implemented, which allows more consistent download and install of software, using /tmp RAMFS as working directory and parallel dependencies installation via G_THREAD.
DietPi-Software | Koel: Installation will now skip webserver, as Koel uses PHP-CLI instead. To not mess with webserver served pages, Koel install directory is moved to "/mnt/dietpi_userdata/koel", for existing installs as well.
DietPi-Software | Mono: Now installs 'mono-complete' by default, required for Mono based applications (e.g. Radarr/Sonarr/Lidarr/Jackett etc)
DietPi-Software | Lidarr: Now available for installation, automatically download music: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1874
DietPi-Software | Samba Server: Now creates and defaults to the login creds for the 'dietpi' user (previously 'root'). For fresh installations of Samba only: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1991#issuecomment-410505982
DietPi-Software | Folding@Home: Now available for installation on x86_64 machines. Folding@home is a distributed computing project for disease research that simulates protein folding, computational drug design, and other types of molecular dynamics. As of today, the project is using the idle resources of personal computers owned by volunteers from all over the world. Thousands of people contribute to the success of this project. Thanks to @nnovaes for bringing this to our attention!
DietPi-Software | XFCE: Added support for shutdown, restart, hibernate and suspend directly from XFCE panel by default. Existing installs will not be touched, but if required simply run: "apt-get -y install upower policykit-1"
DietPi-Software | Pi-hole: Installation code updated to support the latest release (v4). If you want to upgrade your existing installation, we highly recommend existing users who have this installed to: Uninstall Pi-hole via "dietpi-software", once completed, install Pi-hole again via "dietpi-software": https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1696
DietPi-Drive_Manager | Added NFSv3 mount support. Drive manager now detects NFSv3-only server and offers to enter the required server-side path to the shared folder: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1940
DietPi-Drive_Manager | Now installs "ntfs-3g" and "hfsplus" on demand, if those file systems are detected. This allows us to ship images without "ntfs-3g" and "hfsplus" preinstalled, which are not required by most users. Those packages will be removed on v6.13 patch as well, if the related file systems are not detected.
DietPi-LetsEncrypt | Added information/warning about HTTPS and HSTS according to web applications with standalone webserver: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1908
DietPi-Cron | /etc/cron.minutely/ is now disabled by default, to reduce cron executions and logs. This is also patched with v6.13, if no script is placed within the folder. Use "dietpi-cron" to enable and configure this feature.
General | All DietPi scripts by default now use /tmp RAMFS to create, download and handle temporary files. By this we speed up especially installations and reduce disk I/O: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1801
General | By default systemd-logind is now masked on DietPi images. This can be changed by setting AUTO_UNMASK_LOGIND=1 within dietpi.txt. As well it will be unmasked automatically, if libpam-systemd was installed during dietpi-software installation: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1767
General | "fake-hwclock" is purged now on first run setup and v6.13 patch, if a real hardware clock is available.
Image | NanoPC-T4: Image updated which now includes custom kernel/modules created by @carlosedp. Adds CIFS, docker support and much more. Please note, WiFi scan is intermittent with this kernel, and, may take a few attempts to be successful, however, we believe the additional modules are a higher priority: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/1829
Image | RPi: New RPi images will be shipped without "initramfs-tools" preinstalled. The RPi bootloader does no require it and there are alternatives, e.g. "rpi-initramfs-tools" and "tiny-initramfs". The package can be manually purged on RPi systems, but "kmod" and "udev" need to be marked als manually installed first, so they will never be removed: "apt-mark manual kmod udev && apt-mark auto initramfs-tools && G_AGA"
