Update after 11.2 point release

  <<BR>>
  Among others, the ''debian-edu-config'' package has been updated, see the related [[https://www.debian.org/News/2021/20211009|announcement]].
  After having upgraded a system with ''LTSP server'' profile, run {{{debian-edu-ltsp-install --diskless_workstation yes}}} to update the SquashFS image for Diskless Workstations and {{{debian-edu-pxeinstall}}} to update the PXE installation environment.

+ <<BR>>
+ Among others, the ''debian-edu-doc-*'' packages and the ''debian-edu-config'' package have been updated, see the related [[https://www.debian.org/News/2021/20211218|announcement]].

+ <<BR>>
+ If prompted, choose ''no'' for an automatic ''smb.conf'' file update, and (later) ''keep the local version currently installed''.
+ <<BR>>
+ As an alternative for diskless workstations, '''it is now possible to install and maintain a dedicated LTSP chroot''' (instead of using the SquashFS image from the server filesystem); see the [[DebianMan:debian-edu-ltsp-install|debian-edu-ltsp-install manual page]] for details.
