Helps: #2410. - Ensure that diagnostics methods and parameters are type checked so that we can catch any potential issues. - Move plinth/modules/diagnostics/check.py to plinth/diagnostic_check.py to avoid many circular dependencies created. This is due to plinth.modules.diagnostics automatically imported when plinth.modules.diagnostics.check is imported. Also app.py is already (type) dependent on diagnostic_check due to diagnose() method. To make the Check classes independent of diagnostic module is okay. Tests: - Run make check-type. - Run full diagnostics with following apps installed: torproxy, tor. - Test to netcat to 9051 in tor works. - Test 'port available for internal/external networks' in firewall works. - Test 'Package is latest' works. - Test 'Access url with proxy' in privoxy works.

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.
Getting Started
To have a running FreedomBox, first install Debian (Buster or higher) on a clean machine. Then run:
$ 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.
