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)
