Beta v7.3.2

(2021-06-26)

Changes

DietPi-Automation | A new dietpi.txt setting "AUTO_SETUP_DHCP_TO_STATIC" has been added. When set to "1", DHCP leased network settings will be applied as static network settings automatically during first run setup. This works as well with older images, by adding the above setting to dietpi.txt.
DietPi-Backup | The include/exclude filter handling has been reworked. /mnt (dietpi_userdata) and /media related rules are added now via the editable custom filter file, which gives users more control over these. Especially it allows to include other mount points below /mnt, hence external dietpi_userdata, which was previously impossible due to the order in which those filter rules are applied.
DietPi-VPN | The killswitch has been adjusted to allow incoming SSH connections. Many thanks to @yslupdates for doing this request: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4447
DietPi-Config | Support for the Allo Boss2 DAC OLED display has been added to the "Display Options" > "LCD/OLED Panel addon" menu. When selecting the Allo Boss2 DAC as sound card, you will be asked whether to enable the OLED display as well.
DietPi-Software | Allo web UI: Updated to v13.3 which adds support for the Allo Boss2 DAC and resolves an issue where the Squeezelite service could not be controlled as the service path has changed. All credits go to Allo for implementing these changes.
DietPi-Software | Cuberite: This has been enabled for ARMv8 systems, where the available ARMv7 binaries work just fine.

New Software

AdGuard Home | This DNS sinkhole ad blocker for your LAN, similar to Pi-hole, has been added with software ID 126.
Beets | This command line music organizer and manager has been added with software ID 190.
frp | This proxy system has been added as install option with ID 171.
Snapcast Server | This multiroom audio server component has been added with software ID 191. Many thanks to @foxy82 for implementing this software title: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/4465
Snapcast Client | The multiroom audio client component has been added with software ID 192. Many thanks to @foxy82 for implementing this software title: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/4465
K3s | Added a lightweight Kubernetes implementation as install option with ID 193. Many thanks to @mortenlj for implementing this software title: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/4476

Removed Software

Tomcat 8 | Tomcat version 8 is available until Debian Stretch only, from Buster on it's Tomcat 9. There is no reasonable configration that DietPi-Software can do on top of installing the APT package, which can be easily done manually via "apt install tomcat9". The software option is hence removed from DietPi-Software, in favour of a manual package install.

Fixes

DietPi-JustBoom | Resolved an issue where the equalizer was always shown as "Off" even when it was just or previously enabled (v7.2 regression). Many thanks to @shao for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=35072#p35072
DietPi-Drive_Manager | Resolved an issue where network drives were detected as physical drives (v7.2 regression). Many thanks to @maartenlangeveld for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4479
DietPi-Software | Node-RED: Resolved an issue where the Python 3 RPi.GPIO module was tried to be installed as dependency on non-RPi devices (v7.2 regression). Many thanks to @TheAdminFrmoHell for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4478
DietPi-Software | PI-SPC: Resolved a syntax error in the shutdown script loop. Many thanks to @renaudlarzilliere for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4488
DietPi-Software | Resolved an issue where with AUTO_SETUP_AUTOMATED=1 the OpenSSH client was always installed on first boot, even if it was not requested.

Hi,

probably found an issue on frp. During install I'm ask to select Server, Client or Both. And now I try to cancel the dialog, which is not working. I'm locked into a loop as I need to do a selection

[ERROR] A choice is required to finish the frp install.

MichaIng commented 3 years ago

Jep, that is expected as a choice is required to know which service to install and setup, which is also the reason this install option has the aSOFTWARE_INTERACTIVE flag. Or shall we allow to cancel and then do a default choice? Which default would be best? A dietpi.txt option would be actually nice as well. But sooner or later we need to split those out into a dedicated software config file, to not overload dietpi.txt too much 😄.

Joulinar commented 3 years ago

If I cancel at this stage, I would expect to cancel the installation. What would be the meaning of a cancellation button, if I can't use it? 😉

MichaIng commented 3 years ago

whiptail actually has the --nocancel option to hide the cancel button, I just never implemented it into G_WHIP functions, as the cases are very rare. But indeed it makes sense here.

An option to really cancel the install doesn't make sense, does it? I mean who starts to install a software title to then abort it when being asked for a setup choice?

Joulinar commented 3 years ago

True, might be an extremely rar case.
