Announcing Allsky version v2024.12.06_06

[EricClaeys]

This is a bug-fix only release and should be installed if you experience any of the following problems:

• Fixed an issue where downloading the support log from the WebUI's "Getting Support" page would hang the page.
• Fixed a couple issues with WebUI "System Messages":
  • Some messages were displayed hundreds or thousands of times rather than being displayed once with a number of occurrences greater than 1.
  • A message was truncated when unable to download the de421.bsp file.
• Fixed a rare situation where the Module Manager will fail to display any modules due to corruption in a module's metaData.

You can also install this update if you simply want to be on the "latest and greatest" release.

Install it like you install any release. See the Installation -> Allsky Documentation page if you need help.

If you have ANY problems with the installation, then PLEASE:

• If the WebUI is working, go to the "Getting Support" page, follow the instructions, and attach the support log it creates to a new GitHub Discussion.
• If the WebUI is not working (for example, if the installation itself fails), run: cd ~/allsky; ./support.sh and attach the support log it creates to a new GitHub Discussion.

Enjoy - the Allsky Development Team
