After FreedomBox 26.11 was released, we discovered a bug for FreedomBox
26.10 in testing, and 26.11 in unstable:

Note that only testing/unstable systems are affected, and as far as I
know, only new installations are affected.

To fix this issue, FreedomBox 26.11.1 has been uploaded to unstable:

  • apache: Stop installing uwsgi by default
  • debian: Re-arrange test steps to help with debugging
  • locale: Update translations for Chinese (Simplified Han script),
    German, Turkish
