-Eclipse IDE 2021-09
FIXED BUGS
-Our previous release of Escuelas Linux inadvertently included a non-working version of Veyon, which prompted us to release an emergency Fix Pack. Now the Veyon version included is working and thoroughly tested.
-Zotero had an incorrect permission set, which caused users not to be able to update it. Bug fixed.
-The installer downloaded some non-requested packages, which caused some mismatches and longer installation times on computers with low-speed Internet bandwidth. From now on, the installer is not going to download any package.
