* Fix regression in autoupdater version comparison function
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Due to a regression in Gluon 2018.1, the autoupdater would incorrectly
|
|
|
|
|
consider certain version strings equal and not attempt to upgrade.
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, any string and its prefix were considered equal when the
|
|
|
|
|
prefix did not end with a digit. For example, the following relations were
|
|
|
|
|
not evaluated correctly:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ``1.0`` < ``1.0.1``
|
|
|
|
|
* ``1.0~pre`` < ``1.0``
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Fix unintended difference between autoupdater version comparison and dpkg/opkg
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alphanumeric characters were considered less than end-of-string, when the
|
2019-03-10 19:15:25 +00:00
|
|
|
intended behaviour (as implemented by dpkg and opkg) is that only ``~`` is
|
2018-12-26 15:34:58 +00:00
|
|
|
less than end-of-string. This broke relations like the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ``1.0`` < ``1.0a``
|
|
|
|
|
* ``1.0a`` < ``1.0ab``
|
|
|
|
|
* ``1.0a`` < ``1.0a1``
|

Known issues
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-03-10 19:15:25 +00:00
|
|
|
This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promiscuous mode is disallowed).
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Inconsistent respondd API (`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Frequent reboots due to out-of-memory or high load due to memory pressure on weak hardware specially in larger meshes
|
|
|
|
|
(`#1243 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1243>`_)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optimizations in Gluon 2018.1 have significantly improved memory usage.
|
|
|
|
|
There are still known bugs leading to unreasonably high load that we hope to
|
|
|
|
|
solve in future releases.
