[Tails-dev] [Tails News] Tails 5.6 is out

[Tails - News]

# [Tails 5.6 is out](https://tails.boum.org/news/version_5.6/index.en.html)

# Changes and updates

  * Update _Tor Browser_ to 
[11.5.5](https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-1155).

  * Update the _Linux_ kernel to 5.10.149. This should improve the support for 
newer hardware: graphics, Wi-Fi, and so on.

# Fixed problems

  * When a manual upgrade is required, Tails now always points to the release 
notes of the latest version, instead of pointing sometimes to a deprecated 
version. ([#17069](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/17069))

For more details, read our
[changelog](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/blob/master/debian/changelog).

# Known issues

None specific to this release.

See the list of [long-standing
issues](https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/index.en.html).

# Get Tails 5.6

## To upgrade your Tails USB stick and keep your persistent storage

  * Automatic upgrades are available from Tails 5.0 or later to 5.6.

You can [reduce the size of the
download](https://tails.boum.org/doc/upgrade/index.en.html#reduce) of future
automatic upgrades by doing a manual upgrade to the latest version.

  * If you cannot do an automatic upgrade or if Tails fails to start after an 
automatic upgrade, please try to do a [manual 
upgrade](https://tails.boum.org/doc/upgrade/index.en.html#manual).

## To install Tails on a new USB stick

Follow our installation instructions:

  * [Install from Windows](https://tails.boum.org/install/windows/index.en.html)
  * [Install from macOS](https://tails.boum.org/install/mac/index.en.html)
  * [Install from Linux](https://tails.boum.org/install/linux/index.en.html)
  * [Install from Debian or Ubuntu using the command line and 
GnuPG](https://tails.boum.org/install/expert/index.en.html)

The Persistent Storage on the USB stick will be lost if you install instead of
upgrading.

## To download only

If you don't need installation or upgrade instructions, you can download Tails
5.6 directly:

  * [For USB sticks (USB
