Debian Trixie and Ubuntu Noble support has been added using an as of this time an unofficial fix to the piaware_builder source code. I have submitted a pull request containing the fixes to the main piaware_builder repository but it has not gone through the approval process yet. Until this or another fix is approved, I modified the scripts to use my fork of piaware_builder when Trixie or Noble is detected. All other supported distributions use the official piaware_builder repository. Although tested, the use of PiAware on Trixie or Noble based distributions should be considered "use at your own risk" until the official repository adds support for them.

A working version of the previously removed logging functionality has been readded. Each time the scripts are ran a dated log file is generated within the ~/adsb-receiver/logs directory. These logs can be used to help troubleshoot issues which may have been encountered or used as reference to view exactly what the scripts have done. By default, logging is turned on but can be disabled with the use the --no-logging of -n switches when executing install.sh.

Other changes include an updated dump1090-fa installation process which mimics the instructions found in the official FlightAware dump1090 README and the ability to change text colors used by the install scripts via variables located in the ~/adsb-receiver/bash/variables.sh file. There has also been extensive work done to bring the scripts to current bash scripting standards.
