I've uploaded an image for Fienix 5.1, codename Spark. It was a considerable task to weed out and fix packages this time, due to what I believe was an unfortunate and misguided decision at Debian. That said, most packages in Fienix Spark are the current version. However, I've held back KDE/Qt packages a few versions to ensure their operability and stability. I plan on building KDE/Qt packages myself for future updates instead of importing them from Debian since they seem to be the most problematic.
Spark is basically a stability release with quite a few refinements and creates a good foundation for going forward. Hopefully you can try it out!
Fienix Download Page Choose "Download Fienix Live Image" (second button).
Notes:
Spark starts in "compatibility mode" with fbdev and effects turned off. If you have a supported GPU you can use Fienix Companion to enable hardware acceleration.
If you require an input method platform, as I believe kilaueabart uses, please try SCIM.
Thanks!
Casey

HI
I have updated Fienix and installed the programs I usually use. Everything went well.
In addition, I have installed Danish language files and it also works well.
Installed locale in synaptic and then used the information from this web page.
Fienix works really well here.

Have a nice day
