Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
It seems the holidays are over and people are submitting more things to Factory again. There were even days were I was almost running out of free staging projects (almost – I still had some spare). In total, we have published another round of 7 snapshots this week (0414…0420)
The main changes released this week were:
- Ruby 3.1 plus all ruby3.1-rubygem-* packages have been removed from Tumbleweed
- zypper 1.14.60 / libzypp 17.31.10: support for x86-64-vX architecture packages
- Mesa 23.0.2
- GStreamer 1.22.2
- OpenLDAP 2.6.4
- python-setuptools 67.6.1
- libyui 4.5.1: changes in the way icons are loaded. In some cases, we’d seen the icon missing (boo#1210712)
Most relevant updates that are currently being tested in stagings:
- Rust 1.69
- grep 3.10
- libxml2 2.10.4
- Boost 1.82.0
- Mozilla Firefox 112.0.1
- KDE Gear 23.04.0
- Linux kernel 6.2.12
- ICU 73.1: breaks libqt5-qtwebengine
- gcc 13.1 RC2
- Wayland 1.22.0: crashes Firefox (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1826583, fixed for FF 113)
- openSSL 3.1: still broken are nodejs19, perl-Protocol-HTTP2, python-aiohttp, python-tornado6
Thank you to the package maintainers for keeping things going and looking after the build failures in openSUSE:Factory. We’re actually down to 69 failed builds out of 15600 packages. Can we get those fixed too? 🙂 See https://tinyurl.com/ysy4nnnz
