So TBH, last RC1 was a trainwreck when talking about the GUI experience, and should have been a beta instead of an RC.
To be fair, making the GUI has been a real pain experience to deal with, where compiled builds couldn't work because of esoteric framework code, and the framework has been forked because it changed it's licensing... Lots of fun situations.

ARM builds will be uploaded later this day.

Anyway, this RC2 fixes the following since RC1:

  • Fixed linux executables built on RHEL 7 didn't work on Ubuntu and alikes, thanks to @guss77 for reporting
  • Fixed environment variables weren't parsed, thanks to @BJSchmidt for reporting
  • Fixed GUI inheritance didn't show up properly, thanks to @GuitarBilly for reporting
  • Fixed GUI manager password didn't save on first try, thanks to @GuitarBilly for reporting
  • Fixed GUI repo/group creation didn't update window
  • Fixed GUI full repo URI was shown in operations view, thanks to @GuitarBilly for reporting
  • Improved master password strength test
  • Improved bytes/bits values reading from configuration
  • Various cosmetic GUI improvements
  • Updated to latest restic version 0.17
  • Fixed linux task creation missed username
  • Added --no-cache option
  • Added manual --init command (even if backup already does init)
  • exclude_files path are now tested against current path if not found
