This release fixes [many security issues](https://tails.boum.org/security/Nume
rous_security_holes_in_3.1/index.en.html) and users should upgrade as soon as
possible.

# Changes

## New features

  * We added support for PPPoE and dial-up Internet connections.

Please [tell us](mailto:[email protected]) if this still doesn't work for
you!

  * We installed 
_[BookletImposer_](http://kjo.herbesfolles.org/bookletimposer/) to convert 
linear PDF documents into booklets, and vice-versa.

  * We added _GNOME Screen Keyboard_ to replace _Florence_, the previous 
virtual keyboard, which had [many 
issues](https://labs.riseup.net/code/projects/tails/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&set_filter=1&f%5B%5D=cf_18&op%5Bcf_18%5D=%3D&v%5Bcf_18%5D%5B%5D=On-screen+keyboard&f%5B%5D=subject&op%5Bsubject%5D=%7E&v%5Bsubject%5D%5B%5D=Florence&f%5B%5D=fixed_version_id&op%5Bfixed_version_id%5D=%3D&v%5Bfixed_version_id%5D%5B%5D=294&f%5B%5D=&c%5B%5D=status&c%5B%5D=priority&c%5B%5D=fixed_version&c%5B%5D=subject&c%5B%5D=category&c%5B%5D=cf_15&c%5B%5D=assigned_to&c%5B%5D=cf_9&group_by=&t%5B%5D=).

## Upgrades and changes

  * Upgrade _Linux_ to 4.12.12. This should improve the support for newer 
hardware, especially NVIDIA Maxwell graphics card.

  * Upgrade _Thunderbird_ from 45.8 to 52.3.

### User experience

  * Require a 8 GB USB stick to install Tails. 4 GB USB sticks that are already 
installed can still be upgraded.

  * _Tails Installer_ now detects when the target USB stick has Tails installed 
already and automatically proposes to upgrade. This made possible to remove the 
initial splash screen.

### Security

  * Disable _Bluetooth_ to protect against the _[BlueBorne_ 
attack](https://www.armis.com/blueborne/). 
[#14655](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/14655)

Please [let us know](mailto:[email protected]) if this makes it hard for
you to use Tails!

  * Increase the randomization of 
[ASLR](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address%5Fspace%5Flayout%5Frandomization) 
to the maximum. [#11840](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/11840)

  * Deny access to the D-Bus service of _Pidgin_ to prevent other applications 
to access and modify its configuration. 
[#14612](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/14612).

## Fixed problems

  * Fix the import of secret OpenPGP keys in _Password and Keys_. 
[#12733](https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/12733)
