^ No new iso. New version of package bunsen-welcome.
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade should be enough.

I was getting a glitch when trying to enable Debian Backports in bl-welcome, when the mirror url wasn't being set. Fixed in the latest bl-welcome, so a second run uses the updated script and all is good

Posting this from an install of the 32bit iso into VirtaulBox. Choose graphical install, all into one partition, ran the post install script, rebooted. Everything worked as expected.

Just did a clean RC2 install from usb-stick direct to desktop hardware. Everything went very fine until running the bl-welcome script. When adding debian backports to apt sources... I get this error message:
updating apt...
There were problems during the update.
Press "d" for details (q to quit) dE: Malformed line 3 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-jessie-backports.list (URI parse)
E: The list of sources could not be read.
I think you should know.

Thank you for reporting this.
We were already aware of this and an update is available.
Change /etc/apt/sources.list to
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160115-03:39]/ jessie contrib main non-free
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160115-03:39]/ jessie contrib main non-free
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib
# deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free
Only an edit of line 3 is needed: add http://...
Run apt-get update and and-get upgrade, then from a terminal run bl-welcome again.

I'm splitting off ostrolek's feedback, it needs its own thread.
No, he can't sleep on the floor. What do you think I'm yelling for?!!!

I installed now, and got the same issue.
Just do:
sudo geany /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-jessie-backports.list
Make the file look like this:
# added by bl-welcome
# Debian backports
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main contrib non-free
Save the file, and:
sudo apt-get update
or rerun "bl-welcome" if you wish to complete it.
To the devs, this was missing from the line:
"http://httpredir.debian.org/debian"

Just installed Hydrogen RC2 now, and apart from the small issue above, everything went fine for me. Nothing bad to report. Well Done, team

^ The issue is known and has been covered in several places The `bl-welcome` script was fixed on github a few days ago
"Nothing bad to report" sounds pretty good!

I saw xaos52's reply above here, and his answer is a bit "confusing". He posted the content of "/etc/apt/sources.list" instead of "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-jessie-backports.list". Obviously just by mistake, but hat's why I felt it needed some clarification
Study the post and you will see what's wrong

My computer has AMD components,
does this version of BunsenLabs 8.3 (Hydrogen) RC2 have the kernal 4.x with the proprietary drivers which works best?

BunsenLabs uses the Stable Debian release - Jessie has the 3.16.0-4 kernel. It is quite easy to install 4.3 from jessie-backports though.

AMD
The latest amdgpu driver is only available from testing/unstable at the moment.

Installing testing/unstable packages in BunsenLabs is not recommended but you can try backporting it yourself by following this guide:

I know there is a sort of changelog in one of the posts (linked from the op here), but would it be possible to have a more detailed changelog?
I am running bl rc1, always update, but they do not take effect, unless I copy the changed files. Now, I do not want to copy all files from /usr/share/bunsen/skel blindly, I check what has changed, and only copy something if that does not interfere with my own settings. Usually, I merge the skel file with my own version (mostly manually). This could become much more efficient if I knew after a bunsen package update what files have been changed and how.
Thank you for the great effort. I installed rc2 on one of my desktop machines, and I like it so far, not that I did not like rc1. The only thing I dislike is the bl..dy big terminal, that was the very first thing I changed back to the default.

... The only thing I dislike is the bl..dy big terminal, that was the very first thing I changed back to the default.
Surely you mean you changed it from the default? I find it is still too small for me, so the first thing I do is make it bigger!
Ref a changelog: if you look at the Repository Index you can see all the current package versions. Many of them are packaged from the github repos, so you can see from the releases what has been changed by directly viewing the commits.
There is also a changelog included in each package ( <package>/debian/changelog ) with the relevant details, which you can view either on github, or by examining the deb in your package cache.
The packaging guys have a lot to do, for which we are all very grateful, and keeping a changelog to include every package change would be very onerous and time-consuming I think.

Sorry to disappoint, but I mean I commented out the line about the size. Currently my terminals are nicely organized so that I can even look the relevant parts of my conky, but with the bigger ones, it just uses too much space. There is one situation, when I put the terminal to full screen: when I open a Midnight Commander. But then again, it is full screen, and not something in between.... Anyway, I guess it is only a matter of taste, however the default suits me much better than your bigger size.

Like this? https://www.bunsenlabs.org/gitlog.html
Auto-generated, and plenty detailed.
