What's coming in 7.5

[d19dotca]

I see 7.5.0 is out now, I just got the notification. I’ll look to update tonight. I was curious… I see spam learning being a topic in 7.5 but it wasn’t in the release notes of 7.5.0 that I saw. Is that coming later in another patch release or was that indeed addressed in 7.5.0?

@d19dotca most of the features are not done. Only the mail privacy issue, oidc fixes ,redis 7 upgrade is done . We pushed this early since redis and oidc updates were blocking many apps.

I wonder - how good is 7.5 for production use? I can see that some of my instances are not updated automatically and I guess it's because it's not considered to be good for all use cases?

[girish]

7.5.0 is primarily out for people blocked on discourse and chatwoot. I would wait for a couple of weeks for 7.5.1 which will have many of the features implemented.

@girish thank you! If I don't use discource & chatwoot, everything else is expected to be fine? Or not really?

Add optional flag for turn addon.

This is implemented now - redis and turn can be optional (depending on the app).

Add check to indicate that Cloudron 7.6 will not support servers without AVX. This is required for MongoDB 6.0

This was added a while ago - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/commit/df54ba3a0a7cadc5dff47da50915235a6166f860

The turn option is huge, thank you! I cannot wait to implement it. Is it in the 7.5.0 pre-release?

[humptydumpty]

@eganonoa I'm on 7.5.0 and don't have those options yet. It must be in 7.5.1 that's coming in the next week or the 7.6 release (no ETA yet).

(mail) Virtual all directory in dovecot for search

This is implemented now. You can read the blog post on our investigation at https://blog.cloudron.io/email-search-in-mail-clients/ . If you use any other email clients, let me know happy to add it to that blog.

Nice write up!

[swheeler78]

When will 7.5 be considered GA / stable? Been out for a couple of weeks now but still says pre-release.

[girish]

@swheeler78 the code went through a major rewrite, so we are giving it more time. Our e2e passed yesterday, we will do a round of manual testing coming week and release 7.5.1 as stable.

[swheeler78]

So, does this mean that 7.5.1 will replace 7.5 or will I still need to upgrade to 7.5 first? Thanks for everythign in advance.

[girish]

@swheeler78 7.4.3 will upgrade directly to 7.5.1

[girish]

As an update here, 7.5.1 e2e tests are now running. We should have a release in a day or two.

SSHFS/CIFS import is not working - 1 and 2

This is now fixed.

[dylightful]

@girish Can't seem to see the Redis option in 7.5.0 using unmanaged WordPress. Is this coming in a future release?

[girish]

@dylightful yes, 7.5.1 is not yet . It's ready but didn't want to push it over the weekend. So, we will make it available as unstable on Monday.

Great. I think I was one of these:

@nebulon said in Suggestion for prereleases:

I think we made a mistake with 7.5 where it was pushed out for some Cloudrons unintentionally for auto-updates for a brief moment

I didn't notice anything break. And I see it led to a nice discussion about prelease testing and even naming conventions.

@d19dotca said in Suggestion for prereleases:

Just to clarify from my perspective a couple of things and add my two cents...

Any experienced users here or someone just reading that thread or this one here is prepared, but others might benefit from clarifications.
It took me several months to figure things out.
