Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
Almost 2% of 2023 is already behind us. Week 1 is, from experience, always a still rather quiet week. Many contributors are still with their families or are just stretching some vacation. But, of course, only ‘many’ and by far not all. Tumbleweed managed to release 7 snapshots since the last review (1230, 1231, 20230101…20230105).
The main changes shipped were:
- Qt5 qtwebengine 5.15.12
- Mesa 22.3.2
- xorg-x11-server 22.1.6
- Linux kernel 6.1.2
- Poppler 23.01.0
- xz 5.4.0
- ImageMagic 7.1.0.57
Staging projects start to be more filled up again, mostly with a lot of python-* updates (too many to list). The main updates sticking out are:
- Python pytest 7.2.0
- Meson 1.0.0
- KDE Plasma 5.26.5
- Linux kernel 6.1.3
- GnuPG 2.4: breaks gpgme:qt and seahorse (fix for seahorse in the queue)

- Python Sphinx 6.1
- Boost 1.81.0: breaks libetonyek and LibreOffice
- Ruby 3.2 is being tested to become the default ruby version: YaST is failing
