Highlights

Dream Server 2.5.0 is the fleet-validated release for the expanded local-AI install surface.

  • Multi-distro validation now covers Ubuntu 24.04/22.04, Debian 12, Linux Mint 21.3, Fedora 41, Rocky Linux 9, Arch, Manjaro, CachyOS, and openSUSE Tumbleweed in CI/container form.
  • tower2 now runs an Incus VM distro lab for real systemd, network, Docker daemon, Docker Compose, and installer dry-run coverage on Ubuntu 24.04, Fedora 42, Rocky 9, Arch current, and openSUSE Tumbleweed.
  • Strix Halo, Apple Silicon, Linux NVIDIA, Linux ARM NVIDIA, and tower2 fleet paths are documented in the public validation matrix.
  • AMD runtime diagnostics and explicit AMD inference state now make Lemonade vs llama-server, host vs container, backend, health, and managed/runtime mode visible.
  • Rocky/RHEL-family Docker installs now use a Docker CE CentOS/RHEL repo fallback when distro packages are unavailable.
  • DNF package resolution avoids Fedora/RHEL-style curl vs curl-minimal conflicts.
  • Retired LiveKit credential exposure is documented as resolved so public audit readers do not mistake retired leaked values for active secrets.

Validation Receipt

Full fleet pass: /home/michael/dream-fleet-test/runs/2026-05-21T15-48-27Z

  • tower2, Strix Halo, Spark, Mac mini, and M5 MacBook Pro passed install, 7/7 verify, Hermes seeded echo, UI checks, and applicable capability probes.
  • Strix Halo and M5 MacBook Pro fully proved capability probes on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B; Mac mini fully proved capability probes on Qwen3.5-9B.
  • tower2 and Spark deferred capability probes while still in bootstrap mode.
  • Regressions: 9/9 fixtures green, 0 bugs detected, 0 PRs opened.
  • Distro lab: Docker matrix passed 10/10 distros; Incus VM matrix passed 5/5 VMs with real systemd + Docker and clean installer dry-runs.

Known Follow-up

Running fleet-multi-distro.sh in parallel with a heavy dream-fleet-test install on tower2 can cause I/O contention. This is tracked in #1314 and is not release-blocking; serialize those surfaces or add a future --parallel-limit flag.

See dream-server/CHANGELOG.md and dream-server/docs/VALIDATION-MATRIX.md for the full release notes and evidence trail.
