Various fixes for Scarthgap 6.0-RC1

June 15, 2024 — BarryK

I have been fixing things and not reporting here. Well, here are a couple...

Homebank failed to start. The 'nghttp2' package was missing.

I have changed the builtin home finance program from Homebank to Grisbi, as the latter seems to have the edge with features. Let me know if you think otherwise.

Forum member nnriyer reported that "Limine Installer" is broken:

This is because I bumped Limine to v5; some file name changes have happened.

I am not so keen on Limine anymore, after support for ext2/3/4 was dropped from v6 onwards. The thing is, v4 works OK, haven't had any feedback about it not working, so have rolled back to v4.
