Upgrade from 0.4.x to 0.5.x

Note

First follow the instructions in the 0.3 to 0.4 migration document <0.3.x_to_0.4> if you have not yet updated your Admin Workstation to 0.4.

Beginning with SecureDrop 0.5, the source and journalist interfaces are localized. After an unattended upgrade of the application server, these translations are available but are not activated by default.

Note

See the installation documenation <../install> for a list of supported languages.

The steps below should be performed on the Admin Workstation associated with your SecureDrop instance.

Pull the latest release

Open a Terminal and navigate to your SecureDrop directory.

cd ~/Persistent/securedrop

Fetch the latest code, and verify the tag for the latest release (0.5):

git fetch
git tag -v 0.5

The output of the above commands should include Good signature from "SecureDrop Release Signing Key". If it does not, please contact us immediately at support@freedom.press.

Note

You may also see output from GPG warning you that the key is not certified with a trusted signature. This means that there is not a trust path to the release signing key. As long as you see the fingerprint 2224 5C81 E3BA EB41 38B3 6061 310F 5612 00F4 AD77 displayed and the signature verifies as described above then you can proceed safely.

Once you've verified the latest release, check it out:

git checkout 0.5

Choose the list of supported languages

You need to run the ./securedrop-admin sdconfig command again, following the same instructions as during the first installation <../install>. This will not modify the existing configuration but you will be asked for a list of supported languages because this option did not exist before. You should decide which languages you prefer as explained in the installation documenation <../install>.

You should then proceed to update the application server with:

./securedrop-admin install

Verify the source interface displays the selected languages

The source and journalist interfaces will display the current language with a flag and clicking on the flag will show a menu with all supported languages.
