First of all, thanks! Indeed, this is quite feature-complete release! I had none problems with all packages I needed to build some Qt5 applications. I had a feeling I'm compiling for amd64 architecture, not for arm . None nasty problems with packages! All libraries I needed I was able to install by aptitude or was able to compile from sources with minor efforts.

About new feature of disabling inactive cores. I noticed that htop is unable to detect disabled cores if they was inactive during htop start. And if all cores was active at htop start it shows all six. But the bars of CPU core load are displaying incorrectly. The cores in shut down are displaying the same load value as last active core. Like this:

Currently I need to watch CPU cores loading to become familiar with some software behavior. I will be interested with better power saving finally. But now I'd prefer to disable CPU cores shutdown. Is there a possibility to disable inactive core shutdown then enable it back when needed?
Thank you!
