Announcing PiAware 5!

I selected “Upgrade and restart dump1090” 15 minutes ago. Both dump1090-fa and piaware packages were upgraded to 5.0, and services restarted without a second click. (piaware-web package is also installed.)

Two additional observations:

  1. “Which version of PiAware are you running?” dropdown on PiAware - Upgrade PiAware to the latest version - FlightAware still only shows up to 3.0 :wink:
  2. When I follow abcd567’s instructions to build and install 5.0 including piaware-web on a Debian x86_64 machine, the new Web GUI at the original URI /dump1090-fa/ shows a warning “This version of SkyAware will soon be depcrecated. Visit URL: [local IP Address]/skyaware for the most up-to-date SkyAware interface.” Additionally, the root URI now links to /skyaware/, rather than to /dump1090-fa/ as it did in 4.0. However, after package updates on Raspberry Pi, there is no warning on /dump1090-fa/, and the root URI still links to /dump1090-fa/. This seems strange because I assume that both builds would come from the same source.
