@agx @purism Great work! When are Librem 5 users getting this? My L5 is still on phosh 0.29 so two versions behind. By my count it's now 8 weeks since the release of phosh 0.30 (Aug 3) -- is something wrong, or are there reasons why such long delay is needed?

@eliasr I don't think anybody is doing the backporting to byzantium atm. Crimson has recent packages (but I wouldn't recommend Crimson for every day phone usage yet). For experiments `l5-fetch-next phosh` gives you current phosh (+next patches) on byzantium (that's what I'm using to run recent phosh on my daily device).

@agx ok, thanks!

Is there anything mere mortals like myself can do to help making Crimson ready?

@eliasr You can check the issues tagged crimson in PureOS bug tracker and see if something sparks your interest but I'd say most things need a spare device to test on (there's little things left that can sensibly be done in e.g. a VM).

@eliasr I assume at a later point there will be calls for upgrade and alpha / beta testing.

@agx thanks! I do have spare devices, don't worry about that 😉

@agx @eliasr I am testing it now on Byzantium, does it take a while to fetch? or should that process be done in <1hr?

@goatwildernesscollective @eliasr It should be finished in a matter of seconds. Note that you're installing unstable software on your device for *development* purposes.
If you feel uncomfortable debugging and fixing issues I'd recommend to stick to the released versions. Like Debian sid it usually is pretty stable but it *can* break on you.

@agx @eliasr Ok I hold off on installing then, it did fail with a certificate error FYI, when I tried
