Tails OS 2.4 Released - 6/7/16 - changelog within!
Tails Linux OS 2.4 Changelog:
https://git-tails.immerda.ch/t...
tails (2.4) unstable; urgency=medium
* Major new features and changes
- Upgrade Tor Browser to 6.0.1 based on Firefox 45.2. (Closes:
#11403, #11513).
- Enable Icedove's automatic configuration wizard. We patch the
wizard to only use secure protocols when probing, and only
accept secure protocols, while keeping the improvements done by
TorBirdy in its own non-automatic configuration wizard. (Closes:
#6158, #11204)* Security fixes
- Upgrade bsdtar and libarchive13 to 3.1.2-11+deb8u1.
- Upgrade icedove to 38.8.0-1~deb8u1+tails3.
- Upgrade imagemagick to 8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u3.
- Upgrade libexpat1 to 2.1.0-6+deb8u2.
- Upgrade libgd3 to 2.1.0-5+deb8u3.
- Upgrade gdk-pixbuf-based packages to 2.31.1-2+deb8u5.
- Upgrade libidn11 to 1.29-1+deb8u1.
- Upgrade libndp0 to 1.4-2+deb8u1.
- Upgrade poppler-based packages to 0.26.5-2+deb8u1.
- Upgrade librsvg2-2 to 2.40.5-1+deb8u2.
- Upgrade libsmbclient to 2:4.2.10+dfsg-0+deb8u3.
- Upgrade OpenSSL to 1.0.1k-3+deb8u5.
- Upgrade libtasn1-6 to 4.2-3+deb8u2.
- Upgrade libxml2 to 2.9.1+dfsg1-5+deb8u2.
- Upgrade openjdk-7-jre to 7u101-2.6.6-1~deb8u1.* Bugfixes
- Enable Packetization Layer Path MTU Discovery for IPv4. If any
system on the path to the remote host has a MTU smaller than the
standard Ethernet one, then Tails will receive an ICMP packet
asking it to send smaller packets. Our firewall will drop such
ICMP packets to the floor, and then the TCP connection won't
work properly. This can happen to any TCP connection, but so far
it's been reported as breaking obfs4 for actual users. Thanks to
Yawning for the help! (Closes: #9268)
- Make Tails Upgrader ship other locales than English. (Closes:
#10221)
- Make it possible to add local USB printers again. Bugfix on
Tails 2.0. (Closes #10965).* Minor improvements
- Remove custom SSH ciphers and MACs settings. (Closes: #7315)
- Bring back "minimize" and "maximize" buttons in titlebars by
default. (Closes: #11270)
- Icedove improvements:
* Stop patching in our default into Torbirdy. We've upstreamed
some parts, and the rest we set with pref branch overrides in
* Use hkps keyserver in Enigmail. (Closes: #10906)
* Default to POP if persistence is enabled, -

tails (2.0.1) unstable; urgency=medium
* Major new features and changes
- Enable the Tor Browser's font fingerprinting protection
(Closes: #11000). We do it for all browsers (including
the Unsafe Browser and I2P Browser mainly to avoid making our
automated test suite overly complex. This implied to set an appropriate
working directory when launching the Tor Browser, to accommodate for
the assumptions it makes about this.* Security fixes
- Upgrade Tor Browser to 5.5.2 (Closes: #11105).* Bugfixes
- Repair 32-bit UEFI support (Closes: #11007); bugfix on 2.0.
- Add libgnome2-bin to installed packages list to provide gnome-open,
which fixes URL handling at least in KeePassX, Electrum and Icedove
(Closes: #11031); bugfix on 2.0. Thanks to segfault for the patch!* Minor improvements
- Refactor and de-duplicate the chrooted browsers' configuration:
prefs.js, userChrome.css (Closes: #9896).
- Make the -profile Tor Launcher workaround simpler (Closes: #7943).
- Move Torbutton environment configuration to the tor-browser script,
instead of polluting the default system environment with it.
- Refresh patch against the Tor Browser AppArmor profile
(Closes: #11078).
- Propagate Tor Launcher options via the wrapper.
- Move tor-launcher script to
- Move tor-launcher-standalone to
- Move Tor Launcher env configuration closer to the place where it is used,
for simplicity's sake.* Test suite
- Mass update browser and Tor Launcher related images due to font change,
caused by Tor Browser 5.5's font fingerprinting protection
(Closes: #11097). And then, use separate PrintToFile.png for the browsers,
and Evince, since it cannot be shared anymore.
- Adjust to the refactored chrooted browsers configuration handling.
