*New features*
The biggest new feature is the ability for each report to use a separate
locale. This allows you to produce a report tailored for, say, US English,
with periods as decimal separators, and another report for German, with
commas as separators.

In addition, there are a bunch of small bug fixes.

See the V5.1.0 change list
<https://github.com/weewx/weewx/blob/development/docs_src/changes.md> for a
complete list.

*pip*

To install the beta, you must use the pypi "test" repository:

# Activate your virtual environment:
source ~/weewx-venv/bin/activate
# Upgrade from the test repository:
python3 -m pip install weewx --upgrade -i https://test.pypi.org/simple

Note that a different repository has been specified with the "-i" option.

*Debian*

For Debian package installs, modify /etc/apt/sources.list as follows:

*echo "deb [arch=all] https://weewx.com/apt-test/python3
<https://weewx.com/apt-test/python3> buster main" | sudo tee
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/weewx.list*

Note the "apt-test". This tells apt to look there for the beta release,
instead of the normal repository. You may want to change it back when
you're done.


*Red Hat*

For Red Hat package installs, put this in /etc/yum.repos.d/weewx.repo

*[weewx]
name=weewx
baseurl=http://weewx.com/yum-test/weewx/el9
<http://weewx.com/yum-test/weewx/el9>
enabled=1*

Note the "yum-test". This tells yum to look there for the beta release,
instead of the normal repository. Again, you may want to change things back
when you're done.

*OpenSUSE*
For OpenSUSE installs, put this in /etc/zypp/repos.d/weewx.repo:





*[weewx]name=weewxbaseurl=http://weewx.com/
<http://weewx.com/>suse-test/weewx/suse$releasever_majorenabled=1gpgcheck=1*

Note the "suse-test". This tells zypper to look there for the beta release,
instead of the normal repository. Again, you may want to change things back
when you're done.

*Documentation*
See https://www.weewx.com/docs/5.1/

*What we're looking for*

We are interested in your upgrade experience.

   - Did the installers get your configuration file right?
   - Skins?
   - Is the daemon configured correctly?
   - How about udev permissions?

It would also be nice if someone exercised the multiple locales feature.
See the section *Changing languages*
<https://www.weewx.com/docs/5.1/custom/custom-reports/#changing-languages> in
the documentation.
