KubOS 1.20 Upgrading Rust
This latest release of KubOS is a small collection of bug fixes and documentation improvements, some of which are from our community members! The biggest change with this release is the upgrade to Rust v1.39.0. As a result, you’ll need to update your SDK and any boards or platforms you’ve installed KubOS on. You can update the board by doing a full reinstall of KubOS, or by going through the upgrade process.
Installing Archived Apps
We’ve also added the ability to install a mission app via an archive file, in addition to the current method of installing via a full directory. This allows the mission application to be transferred to the board as a single file, and loaded in without the additional step of unpacking it, which is especially useful when uploading in flight.
