Changes / Improvements / Optimizations:
- Security | The DietPi-Software global password is now stored with enhanced security which also resolves a warning on Buster systems:
https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2213
- System | DietPi scripts now use the lightweight standalone “7zr” command to handle 7z archives.
This allows us to lower the DietPi core package dependency from “p7zip-full” to “p7zip”.
- RPi | DietPi does not set or change “framebuffer_depth” in config.txt any more which defaults to 16 which works in every known case.
It will be re-added as fast as we find a case where another value is required.
- DietPi-Banner | You can now customise which options to display during system login.
These include CPU temps, WAN IP, free disk space and more! Simply run ‘dietpi-banner’:
https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2627
- DietPi-NordVPN | Added sent/received usage stats for VPN tunnel.
- DietPi-Sync | Sync will now abort if the source directory is empty.
Merged dry run into real sync, as this was performed anyway to do required free space check.
When “Sync” is selected, after dry run the user is presented a summary and given the option to view the detailed dry run log, cancel or continue with real sync.
Some other minor fixes and enhancements have been applied as well.
Many thanks to @midnightwatcher for doing this request:

- DietPi-Software | Emby Server: Now installs the latest version automatically (currently 4.0.2) which as well offers a native ARMv8 package:
https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/2525
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Switched from 10.8.0.0 to 10.9.0.0 IP addresses on fresh installs to avoid doubled IP range use with OpenVPN.
Many thanks to @XRay437 for pointing this out:
https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2491#issuecomment-461366739
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Changed the way users are advised to add multiple clients, to enhance concurrent connections.

https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2491#issuecomment-462419860
- DietPi-Software | WireGuard: Hardened Debian Sid repo handling on RPi to prevent accidental non-WireGuard package installs.
Many thanks to @rucknapucknavitz @1985kasper and @g7kse for reporting this issue:
https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2568#issuecomment-465725312
- DietPi-Software | GMediaRender: Enabled support for Debian/Raspbian Buster by using the up-to-date APT repo package.

- DietPi-Software | UrBackup: Now installs updated version 2.3.7.
Many thanks to @DeathIsUnknown for the information:
https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/2577
- DietPi-Software | Deluge: Reworked the installer to better match the Debian package defaults and recommendations/examples from official docs.
Deluge now runs as user “debian-deluged”, logs have been moved to “/var/log/deluged/” and the init.d service with its traces are removed, which are all pre-generated by the Debian APT package.
The systemd units have been adjusted according to the official Deluge documentation. These changes are applied as well to existing installs during DietPi update, the old user “deluge” and obsolete configurations are removed. Your active configurations and data are preserved, the installer has been as well enhanced to better handle existing installs and never touch existing configs.
Note that access to the Deluge console has to be done as user “debian-deluged” (sudo -u debian-deluged deluge-console).
A related access issue to the console has been fixed by this as well.
Many thanks to @seanmikhaels for reporting this issue:

- DietPi-Software | DietPi-RAMlog: When installing/enabling RAMlog, the /var/log mount point will be now cleaned before mounting the tmpfs on it, while preserving the existing logs metadata. This resolves a warning on early boot stage and frees the disk space consumed by the disk log before.
- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Runs now as user “rtorrent” and creates files as group “dietpi” with 775/664 permissions. Enabled Buster support and enhanced config file handling on reinstall:
