DietPi-Backup | Rsync: Error control now handled by G_RUN_CMD
DietPi-Config | Locale: Reworked, now only lists UTF-8 items, no longer using dpkg-reconfigure. Our custom set_software script handles all
locales ensuring en_GB is always installed, and selected item is applied as system default.
DietPi-Config | Display options > Resolution: Added fkms/kms (OpenGL) modes for RPi 2/3.
DietPi-Config | Sparky SBC: Added option to select usb-dac-1.1 soundcard, which will enable USB1.1 compatibility.
DietPi-Config | WiFi: Now supports connecting to hidden WiFi networks, thanks @shahwahed : https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/pull/1497
DietPi-LetsEncrypt | On Jessie, changed certificate auto renewal to native certbot renew command, to prevent certificate duplication:
https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/734
DietPi-LetsEncrypt | On Stretch, added automated Minio certificate renewal. Rerun "dietpi-letsencrypt" on your Stretch system to gain this
feature.
DietPi-Process_tool | Reduction of onscreen print. Additional status print will only occur when HIERARCHY is less than 2 and/or an error occurs.
DietPi-Software | AmiBerry: Massive update to v2.14 and SDL2, new installations only. Currently for RPi's under Stretch only, however, we have
plans to impliment for other devices: http://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5&p=64#p64 | https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/1410

various devices.

Bug Fixes:
General | Resolved an issue where externally launched DietPi-Config with target menu, (eg: dietpi-config 8 1) had no effect. EG: fail
connection, should go straight to networking submenu.

locale configured on this system, please use dietpi-config at a later date to re-configure. Backups of previous env and locale settings, are
