Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
Tumbleweed is rolling – just the way we like it. Last week we published 7 snapshots (0629, 0630, 0701, 0702, 0703, 0704 and 0706). I was not performing any check-ins on 0705, as we were busy rebuilding the inner rings for some test setup issues; nothing that impacts your machines, but one of the tests couldn’t cope with our latest, yet long awaited libzypp config
But first, let’s see what the last 6 snapshots brought us before we look into the future:
- NetworkManager-applet 1.8.2 (to go with the recent update of NetworkManager)
- KDE Plasma 5.10.3
- Linux Kernel 4.11.8
- Cups 2.2.3
- KDE Frameworks 5.35.0
The future is bright – the future is green: the upcoming Tumbleweed snapshots will bring you:
- libzypp: change the default setting of ‘dupAllowVendorChange’ to false for Tumbleweed installations. Often discussed, often asked for – finally delivered (currently in staging)
- Linux Kernel 4.12
- Qt 5.9.1
