Effortless maintenance with new scripts
Thanks to new scripts, managing SSH (Secure Shell) on both live and installed systems is now a breeze. Additionally, there is a handy paste script for quick and easy sharing of snippets of code.
More control over your system
In response to user feedback, siduction now installs “recommends” as set by package maintainers. However, full disk encryption with LUKS and LVM is still turned off in the Calamares installer. Furthermore, the option to opt-out software that is not in line with the Debian Free Software Guidelines, including non-free packages, has been removed.
