Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

Week 2019/33 ‘only’ saw three snapshots being published (3 more were given to openQA but discarded).  The published snapshots were 0809, 0810 and 0814 containing these changes:

  • NetworkManager 1.18.2
  • FFmpeg 4.2
  • LibreOffice 6.3 (RC4)
  • Linux kernel 5.2.7 & 5.2.8
  • Libinput 1.14

And those updates are underway for the next few snapshots:

  • Addition of ‘openSUSE-welcome’
  • KDE Applications 19.08.0
  • KDE Frameworks 5.61.0
  • Replace’pkg-config’ with a more modern implementation ‘pkgconf’. It is supposed to be transparent to the change, once things are all worked out.
  • GLibc 2.30
  • cmake3.15.x (breaks nfs-ganesha)
  • Swig 4 (still waiting for a libsolv fix 🙁 )
  • Inclusion of python-tornado 5 & 6
  • gawk 5.0: Careful: we’d seen some build scripts failing already
  • util-linux 2.34: no longer depends on libuuid. Some packages assumed liubuuid-devel being present to build. Those will fail.
