v9.86 2026-07-11 WeKan ® release

This release fixes the following bugs:

• At default docker-compose.yml, changed DDP_TRANSPORT from uws to sockjs, because uws does not work at s390x. Thanks to xet7.
• FerretDB v1 is now downloaded as an individual per-arch binary, not ferretdb.zip: the wekan/FerretDB release now attaches one ferretdb-<arch> (.exe on Windows) asset per platform instead of a single multi-platform ferretdb.zip. Every WeKan build path now downloads only the one binary for the platform it targets from https://github.com/wekan/FerretDB/releases/latest/download/ferretdb-<arch>: release-all.yml (the amd64/arm64/win64/mac/ppc64le/s390x/riscv64 bundle jobs — the separate build-ferretdb job and its ferretdb-zip artifact are removed), the default docker-compose.yml, and the Sandstorm sandstorm-src/build-deps.sh. FerretDB itself also moved its Go toolchain to 1.25.11 to clear the Quay.io stdlib security advisories. Thanks to xet7.
• Drop the mongosh binary; use bundled Node.js 24 + the mongodb driver instead: WeKan no longer bundles or downloads the MongoDB Shell anywhere (snap, Windows bundle). Every scripted database operation it was used for — readiness ping, replica-set initiate/status, and the v8.43 schema migration — now runs through the new snap-src/bin/db-eval (a tiny wrapper around the bundled Node.js 24 + the mongodb driver), so the snap control scripts (wekan-control, mongodb-control, migration-control), the start-wekan.sh/start-wekan.bat launchers, and the ported migrate-schema-v843.mjs are all mongosh-free. This removes a large, CVE-prone binary and works identically on every architecture (including s390x/ppc64le/riscv64, which have no prebuilt mongosh). The legacy MongoDB 3.2 mongo shell (migratemongo, amd64) stays for migration-time reads only. Thanks to xet7.
• MongoDB Database Tools now come from wekan/mongo-tools, not the MongoDB website: every WeKan build downloads the per-arch <tool>-<arch> binaries (bsondump, mongodump, mongoexport, mongofiles, mongoimport, mongorestore, mongostat, mongotop) built by the wekan/mongo-tools fork (pure Go, cross-compiled for every architecture) from its newest release, replacing the fastdl.mongodb.org / downloads.mongodb.com downloads. They are embedded in the Linux .zip bundles (amd64/arm64/s390x/ppc64le/riscv64) — and therefore in the Docker image, which is built from those bundles — the Windows and macOS bundles, the Snap (mongotools part), and the Sandstorm .spk. The MongoDB 7 server (mongod) is still fetched from MongoDB (amd64/arm64 only), since MongoDB ships no server for the other architectures; the legacy MongoDB 3.2 CLIs (migratemongo, amd64) remain only for the one-time MongoDB 3 migration. Thanks to xet7.
• Snap: the default snapcraft.yaml is now the base: core24, grade: stable build: the previous snapcraft.yaml (core26, grade: devel) is renamed to snapcraft-core26.yaml, and the former snapcraft-core24.yaml becomes snapcraft.yaml. Because the default is base: core24 (a released base), it can be published to the Snap candidate channel, which core26 cannot. The automated release-all.yml workflow publishes the snap to the candidate + beta + edge channels; the stable channel is published manually later, once it is proven stable enough. Thanks to xet7.
