Move to kar files, there’s Linux packages that install these.  
It’s not very clever to have a home automation system that can work fully autonomously require a download on every start, isn’t it.

So why is the option even available? If that’s the stance then ‘access remote repository’ shouldn’t even be an option… The same as any software having ‘auto update’. Turn it off, lose updates.

Yes the updates to 2.5 are few and far between now but it’s not a viable solution for everyone to upgrade without 3.x packages for the likes of qnap/syno on arm, but things like Zwave database updates still get rolled AFAIK. I’ve had the option enabled since I started a few years ago as many probably have.

I don’t know but there a scenarios where it makes sense I guess ? Such as for a trial or development situation or when you lack disk space.
