Re: [Tails-dev] Proposal: Add support for curl (does ALL_PROXY fix it?)

boyska:

@boyska: Any concern about that since curl is already installed?

no specific concern, but of course, this moves the needle towards making 
it work out of the box.


All right, see you on #19448, then!

ah! thanks for making me notice. I didn't remember, and indeed we don't 
really use the curl binary itself.




I created #19488 to fix this.

I'm even more convinced that we should fix that :)

[intrigeri]

Hi,

Tails report for February 2023 


 Highlights

 *

   @bokonon joined our team, as
   our Fundraising Lead. bokonon will help us develop and grow our
   fundraising initiatives, to support the work we do to accomplish
   ourmission .

   We prepared usability tests planned in Ecuador in March.


 Releases

Wereleased Tails 5.10 on February 16

As part of our focus on polishing user experience, Tails now asks for 
confirmation when starting without unlocking the Persistent Storage. 
Because we humans sometimes forget stuff. It's OK :)


Tails 5.10 fixed a few problems introduced in Tails 5.8 in December, and 
some more:


 *

   Fixed another case of Persistent Storage not activating. (#19432
   )

 *

   Avoid opening the Persistent Storage settings each time after login.
   (#19410 )

 *

   Solve a possible privilege escalation through a symlink attack.


 Metrics

Tails has been started more than 652 918 times this month. This makes 
23 318 boots a day on average.

Re: [Tails-dev] Release schedule for Tails 5.11

Best case I'll start building late afternoon and we can test tomorrow.

But that's pretty optimistic at this stage. If I had to bet on
something more realistic, I would say I build tomorrow (Wednesday),
testing happens on Wednesday night and Thursday morning, and I release
whenever I find time for it after that. I'm not excluding the
possibility to move the whole release process to Saturday+Sunday,
or even next week, depending on how things develop.

Cheers,
