Yes, we cannot use the 0.2.25 release because it has an annoying bug
that causes it to be blank when the router does not have any neighbour.
It has already been fixed in the lime-app code, but the patch has not
been included in any lime-app release yet.
The discussion on this "old" bug is here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-app/issues/378
If I recall correctly, there are two workarounds for using lime-app
currently:
1) use at least two routers, so that they see a neighbour and lime-app's
bug does not appear
2) open directly the URL of one of the tabs (Gothos, can you write the
direction that you mentioned during the meeting?)
> So would it make sense to test libremesh with the version of lime-app that goes into the release?
Yes, that is what would be ideal to do.
Yet, we need someone to package the lime-app release (I have no idea how
to use lime-app if it is not available as a release...).
Until now, all the lime-app releases have been done either by Altermundi
members Marcos or Germán (in CC).
From what I understood, neither Marcos nor Germán are active in
Altermundi right now, so I have no idea who is going to make the release.
@Altermundi people: please tell us something! Anything!
In the absence of life signs from Altermundi, we could try to do that
from the community side (anyone with expertise on such things?).
> In the last meeting the question was raised where the development of lime-app is currently happening. Are there any news about this? The github repo of lime-app stops at May 2023 and has switched to preactjs since the last release. Should I use its develop branch for testing?
Checking this page:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-app/network
seems that Selankon (in CC) is very active in the development, and that
there is a lot of code to be merged in the main lime-app repository.
> Another question: Should I use the the 2023.1 or the master branch of lime-packages for testing?
The master branch. We cannot use OpenWrt 23.05.2 with LibreMesh
2023.1-rc2, as the 2023.1-rc2 misses this fix of yours:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/pull/1061
If you prefer, we can create a tag for a release candidate 2024.1-rc1.
