Fixed problems
Fix the search of some languages and keyboard layouts. ( #19200)
Make the upgrade of the Persistent Storage more reliable:
On some systems, the message "Upgrading the persistent storage" was displayed every time in Tails 5.14 when Tails failed to upgrade one of the cryptographic parameters. ( #19734)
On some USB sticks, upgrading the Persistent Storage was too slow and failed with the error message "Upgrade of persistent storage failed". ( #19728)
Fix opening documentation links from Tails Installer. ( #19870)
Prevent Tor Browser to access information about other Tor circuits. ( #19740)
Make the error when scanning the QR code of a bridge more consistent. ( #19737)
