-Known issues:+When upgrading from 19.07.0-rc1, if you are affected by the sysupgrade bug on ar71xx, you need to manually edit ''/lib/upgrade/stage2'' and add ''/usr/share/libubox/jshn.sh'' to list of files in the ''install_file'' line (around line 51). This amounts to manually applying [[https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commitdiff;h=d5f509861e606ff680ebc551bcd4253a6545ac8f|this patch]].
