OriginTrail Release v8.2.1

The V8.2.1 release introduces improvements to the auto-updater module and prepares us for the upcoming Github repository rename - the former ot-node repo will be renamed to dkg-engine for better clarity.

✅ If your auto-updater is enabled:

No action is required — your node will automatically update to v8.2.1. Please verify that your node has successfully updated to version 8.2.1 to ensure continued operation after the repository rename.

⚙️ If your auto-updater is disabled:

Make sure to manually update your node within the next 24 hours. This update is required before the GitHub repository name changes to ensure your node continues receiving future updates.

🧩 If you do not update to 8.2.1 before the rename

You'll need to manually update your auto-updater configuration:

1. Enter your node directory: cd ot-node/current/
2. Update the auto-updater repository URL by executing: sed -i 's|OriginTrail/ot-node|OriginTrail/dkg-engine|g' src/modules/auto-updater/implementation/ot-auto-updater.js
3. Verify the changes by checking lines 10 and 11 in src/modules/auto-updater/implementation/ot-auto-updater.js They should look as follows:

const REPOSITORY_URL = 'https://github.com/OriginTrail/dkg-engine';
const ARCHIVE_REPOSITORY_URL = 'github.com/OriginTrail/dkg-engine/archive/';
