- Make terminology more consistent managed vs. possible, resolve vs. actual. - Fix regression in security report caused by comparing package expressions with package names. - Fix regression in package upgrades caused by comparing package expressions with package names. - Update API method names to improve readability and prevent accidental mismatching of package names and package expressions. Update variable names for same reason during usage. Tests: - minetest install successfully in testing. - Security report shows non-zero value in the current vulnerabilities column. - When an unavailable package is added to list of packages in an app, the app can't be installed. - When PackageOr expressions is added to an essential package, running --list-dependencies shows an expressions with '|' in it. - Unit tests succeed. - Find a package with conffile prompt and add that to list of a packages in an app like bepasty and implement a stub force_upgrade() method in the app. Run 'apt update' and that triggers and analysis of packages with conf file prompts. This should call force_upgrade() method in bepasty and with proper argument for list of packages.

FreedomBox Service (Plinth)
The core functionality and web front-end of FreedomBox.
Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
This module, called FreedomBox Service and also know as Plinth, is the core functionality and web interface to the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking. It also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about FreedomBox Service (Plinth) on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.

$ sudo apt install freedombox
Full instructions are available on FreedomBox Manual's QuickStart page.
For instructions on running the service on a local machine from source code, see INSTALL.md. For instructions on setting up for development purposes, see HACKING.md.
