Happy Halloween! Tails released a small update, but it's nice to see that the software in Tails is getting updated more frequently!

Here are the major changes:

Update Tor Browser to 14.0.1.
Update the Tor client to 0.4.8.13.
Update Thunderbird to 115.16.0.
Fix automatic upgrades aborting with the error message "The upgrade could not be downloaded" even after a successful download. (#20593)

Can tails update itself or do you have to continuously redownload the live iso to boot from a new image each update?

[-] Charger8232@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 weeks ago

Either option works.

Very nice indeed. Though would be nicer if they released it at the beginning of September.

I haven't played around with tails in a while, are updates lagging?

[-] GolfNovemberUniform@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago

Idk. I'm not into it.
