New early access update for Linux Security 64 has been released (2026-05-04)
New early access update for Linux Security 64 (version 26.1.512) has been released. Early access updates are an opt-in mechanism for experiencing new Linux Security 64 versions before they get distributed to all users. This update includes the following changes:
- Fixed an issue where activating the agent with automatic updates disabled could cause activation to time out or result in missing components.
- Installation-time connectivity check timeouts no longer cause the installation to abort; the installer will now attempt to continue and complete.
- Fixed classification of Oracle Linux 7 for installation and updates.
- Added a check during activation to verify that existing installation directories have correct permissions and do not contain symbolic links.
- Adopted a new version numbering scheme in the format YY.SEQUENCE.BUILD (e.g. 26.1.512).
- Added support for installing on Ubuntu 26.04.
