Upgraded about an hour ago. So far no camera issues - front, back and video recording all is fine.

Btw. regarding “devel-su version --dup”:
The instructions state to run “devel-su ssu release …” instead of the usual “ssu release …” when upgrading from 3 to 4 (I had this situation). IIRC this involved copying some config file manually. Do you think it is worth checking for future releases?

Thanks for the good work as always! :+1:

I added the missing devel-su to the instructions.
