openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the week 2021/27

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

From the feeling, I probably have to say, the Summer holiday is upon us. Tumbleweed is still rolling of course: it’s not warm enough to have melted our rubber tires to make them sticky glue. During the last week, we have released 5 snapshots (0702, 0703, 0704, 0706, and 0707)

The main changes included:

  • sendmail 8.17.0.3
  • Mesa 21.1.4
  • PHP 7.4.21
  • nodejs 16.4.1
  • Linux kernel 5.13.0
  • NetworkManager 1.32.2
  • bluez 5.59
  • MOTD (mot of the day) handing moved from login.defs to pam_motd
  • Rust 1.53

Changes planned for the next few weeks:

  • linux-glibc-devel 5.13
  • KDE Gear 21.04.1
  • KDE Plasma 5.22.2
  • Linux kernel 5.13.1
  • libxcrypt 4.4.23: addition of CRYPT_SALT_METHOD_LEGACY; needs a fix in pam
  • fmt 8.0.0

    Hi Dominique,

    Do you know if people are working on the list server problems?

    None of the new release announcements since 07/03/2021 have appeared on the factory list.

    The last post on the factory list if from 07/05/2021.

    I tried posting and it accepts it but never posts.

    I tried email the admin that I reported the issues to last time but no response.

    Maybe you have a better contact?
