Announcing GoboLinux 016.01

We are pleased to announce GoboLinux 016.01 after roughly 3 months and a half from the release of 016. While it features some essential package upgrades, this revision aims at providing a more stable foundation for those who want to try it out.

The list of improvements is extensive. The following is a summary of what's new since 016:

• Enabled support for Core2 processors
• Improved support for UEFI systems and virtualized platforms
• Improved detection of other operating systems when creating the GRUB config file
• Support for installation on external hard drives
• Fixes the SSL certificates paths
• Fixes SSL support in our Compile tool
• Fixes the /usr/libexec compatibility link
• Inclusion of CryptSetup to enable mounting of encrypted partitions from the Live ISO
• Inclusion of Listener, a daemon that automatically cleans up broken links when entries from /Programs are removed
• Inclusion of APulse 0.1.9 as a replacement for Pulse Audio (required by Firefox 52.0 onwards)
• The release notes contains a list of updated packages

The Live ISO can be downloaded from our GitHub page, from where you can also review the full change logs.
