Gluon 2016.2.7

This release only fixes a single regression introduced in Gluon v2016.2.6, and add support for building using Perl 5.26.

Bugfixes

• Improve sysupgrade error handling (#1160)

  If for some reason processes don’t react to SIGKILL (usually because of a kernel bug), a node could hang forever in sysupgrade, requiring a power cycle. This has been fixed, triggering a reboot instead.

• Backport fixes to support building with Perl 5.26 or newer (76753ed)

Known Issues

• Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (#94)

  Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.

• The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (#496)

  This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promiscuous mode is disallowed).

• Inconsistent respondd API (#522)

  The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
