Release date: 2022-01-30
Development branch: esr-11.9
Supported version: WSUS Offline Update, Community Edition 11.9.11 hotfix2
Bug fixes
- Better handling of filenames with spaces, thanks to mani
The URLs in the file ../static/StaticDownloadLinks-win-glb.txt used to be percent-encoded, e.g. spaces in the filename were replaced with %20. This was changed in Community Edition 11.9.11, and now spaces are used literally.
The necessary changes for the Linux scripts are already included in Community Edition 11.9.11 hotfix1. - Fixed a possible permission error with find, thanks to Steve A
A permission error may occur, if the command "find" tries to parse the lost+found directory, which is found at the root level of partitions.
Replacing find with a list of known dummy files should fix this.
