Dear community

Priority: High
(Original post at GNU Savannah : https://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=9021 )
We provide "patchsets" to stable releases. Patchsets allow applying bug fixes and updates on production systems. Always try to keep your production system up-to-date with the latest patches.
Patches and Patchsets maximize uptime for production systems, and keep your system updated, without the need to do a whole installation.
NOTE: Patchsets are applied on previously installed systems only. For new, fresh installations, download and install the whole tarball (ie, gnuhealth-3.2.9.tar.gz)
Starting GNU Health 3.x series, you can do automatic updates on the GNU Health and Tryton kernel and modules using the GNU Health control center program.
Please refer to the administration manual section ( https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/GNU_Health/Control_Center )
The GNU Health control center works on standard installations (those done following the installation manual on wikibooks). Don't use it if you use an alternative method or if your distribution does not follow the GNU Health packaging guidelines.
Patch 3.2.9 mainly fixes issues with real time computation of fields in the evaluation, lab, and APACHE II score system
Minor view reordering on the WHR and BMI fields have been also applied.
Refer to the List of issues related to this patchset for a comprehensive list of fixed bugs.
You must apply previous patchsets before installing this patchset. If your patchset level is 3.2.8, then just follow the general instructions.
You can find the patchsets at GNU Health main download site at GNU.org (https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/health/)
In most cases, GNU Health Control center (gnuhealth-control) takes care of applying the patches for you.
Follow the general instructions at
