Salix 15.0RC4
Posted: 28. Aug 2022, 22:31
OK, so this is definitely the final Release Candidate! I discovered a nasty bug with the previous RC when setting up user accounts during installation, so we had to have another one.
* Fixed a nasty bug during installation (and also in usersetup/gtkusersetup tools) when the user entered a password with exactly 5 characters, or otherwise a very simple password, where the password setting failed silently (sort of, it displayed an error message *very* briefly, almost impossible to catch) and the user was left thinking they had entered a valid password, but none was set! So they wouldn't be able to log into their system after installation!
* Added support for dvorak programmer keymaps (in the installer too)
* When booting the installation medium, instead of typing "setup", you can also press the up arrow key to recall the command (useful if you're using a keyboard that does not correspond to the default keymap)
* Minor changes to looks (icons and panel layout)
* Some package updates, like firefox
* Updated Portuguese translations on the installer
Here it is...
