EasyOS 'Kirkstone' series version 5.0. Almost all of the packages in EasyOS 'Kirkstone' series are compiled from source, using a fork of OpenEmbedded (OE) 'Kirkstone' release. Almost all package versions are updated, compared with the 'Dunfell' series. Apart from new package versions, many bug fixes and many improvements, there is one other major improvement - the abandonment of 'langpack' language translation packages, as well as abandonment of language-specific builds. Now, there is just one file to download, the required language is chosen at first bootup, and the user interface is then rendered in that language. More or less, French is just about complete, second is German. MoManager is a GUI translation tool, that has its roots ten years ago in Puppy Linux; it has been extensively rewritten to make it an easy experience for anyone to contribute translations.
I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of Redcore Linux Hardened 2301 (codename Sirius) stable ISO. This cycle was mostly about fixing bugs. Since our previous release in October, many of you have flocked to our bug tracker and reported many issues, which I appreciate. Sisyphus, our package manager, saw a massive benefit, and it is now more reliable than ever. We also added minor features, such as coloured output support.

Milestones: 1- I tried my best to get Encrypted persistence to work but Ubuntu has removed it from casper were Debian based distros can have it because its based on and running live-boot but Ubuntu uses casper let us hope they put it back. 2- I tried to move to Ubuntu 20.04 but Python deprecation was a hassle for me to continue so I continued with 18.04.6 for now bare in mind that 18.04 support is still valid for Ubuntu and it should reach end of life by April 2023. 3- Riseup VPN uses Ipv6 this makes DNScrypt TOR DNS, and torrify non functional I will try to find a solution in future releases.
TrueNAS SCALE 22.12.1 is the first maintenance update to 22.12.0, with over 300 improvements and bug fixes. Users still on the previous version (Angelfish) also have a simple update when using the same features and following the release notes. After a couple of weeks of community testing, we expect to recommend users to update their Angelfish and Bluefin systems to this latest release. TrueNAS SCALE Bluefin inherits all the functional capabilities of Angelfish and adds many new features. This first update (22.12.1) includes many significant improvements and bug fixes that are listed in the release notes. Highlights include: Performance improvements to further optimize various storage protocol workloads. SMB Share Proxy provides a redirect mechanism for making many TrueNAS SMB shares available in a common namespace presented by one TrueNAS system. This reduces the configuration needed for each SMB client. Sudo fields are added to replication tasks to provide the correct privileges on remote targets. Kubernetes pass-through is provided with an Enterprise license and enables external orchestrators to control the Kubernetes API functionality within a node. SSH key upload simplifies administration on TrueNAS via multiple users. Rootless login bug fixes & improvements simplify administration by non-root users. Validate host path in the SCALE UI is improved for the specific safety belt that warns of possible conflicts between apps and sharing. ZFS hotplug fixes and other improvements are provided through an update to OpenZFS 2.1.9.
