-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Replicant 6.0 0004 RC2 (Release Candidate 2): ============================================= This is a release candidate, and certain things don't work. Your data will be erased: ========================= It is not be possible to keep the data partition and a full re-installation will be necessary. Users are advised to backup the important data from the applications (contacts, SMS, etc) before migrating to a this release candidate. There are already some tips[1] on how to backup some applications. It's also not possible to keep the data partition of Replicant 6.0 0004 RC2 when going back to Replicant 6.0 0004 RC1 or even Replicant 6.0 0003. While we have a new hypothesis for the cause of that but we didn't have enough time to fix the issue. We also don't plan to fix it for the 0004 release, unless some people step up to help fixing it, or find good workarounds around it like that respect users freedom, like finding a way to backup and restore the data across different versions very easily. Before we expected that issue not to affect the compatibility between Replicant 6.0 0004 RC1 and Replicant 6.0 0004 RC2 but unfortunately it is affected. That means that the 0004 release will probably have that issue as well. Other issues: ============= The Replicant scripts are broken. This means that you cannot enable nor disable the modem with them or switch back to the "libagl" OpenGL implementation. This is annoying because the several devices are too slow to be usable, and need to be reverted manually to the libagl OpenGL implementation, but the scripts to do that are broken. Here's the list of the affected devices: * Galaxy Nexus (GT-I9250) * All the Galaxy Tab 2 (GT-P3100, GT-P3110, GT-P5100, GT-P5110) A workaround for that would be to install the latest version of the scripts References: =========== [1]https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/UsageNotes#Backups [2]https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/ModemDisable#Installation [3]https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/Graphics#Installation Information about this file: ============================ Applies to the following images: Replicant 6.0 0004 RC2 Last update of this file: 25 July 2020 Signing key for this file: FB31DBA3AB8DB76A4157329F7651568F80374459 Author of this file: Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEeC+d2+Nrp/PU3kkGX138wUF34mMFAl8hHV0ACgkQX138wUF3 4mPg9BAAgmxSClg3FbHLjbdh9bRFz8YJBHTwR1tc24BnijbNHnUnG7kloOUVJyYF +HKbbM+Z88AELKuoc3mnk3hhJ6inl/ZuggIwdQYwxYCYXQWUECbD55Rai4IbfP3d 6KlvJHxhDiv0xdgblLjQ67I6LVss07EMH2QKNlr4cV7Ns0Fb3jfpf/IuB/D8rc10 MhoYagD1173UpknJg/3AgmXyIaZOWJxkh5v0v7kxpU3X9rqZeUb9f6b9PKQFYcmT E6qxrUFPHhcIe6jvCVUKm+486yko5ESH5QkIu05nMCoVfFK6Io90AVnsliCAJzcP OsTNLkJJrYTJHKMvpQ35GnP+53rkqs25Oe5nSChYMsxe8nBu6QdV4RLFNVcdOWhp C8hdT3zzzRXL2u0MVWNFW+h4u1DncXShm3RHauBS8PVJ1n4BoxFcKeNtooBCUlK6 qtdsXDTcoqZC9WFktMrHoNeRpXTB0zAOE7vkgriKjqDmLXsgGMGfgsOscbx7VlEU NcwQf92L81dA4MxLe7OrIR5tgfYdhuX8RVj6Xx7xudVa3sSHqSvqvztN1rLsyjCZ y2of2xZSb/JgEA564o7sEr5jjowXYMygV7uB+Y+2m1EWyt502WR11nzt0BUYHZUu wXMVUQzMc9cziSn2GkWlrQFIJdI99uvp2THv8wN47n5yNdFTXMw= =0doa -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
