Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
Again I have to span the review over two weeks – in the region where I live we had some holiday last week and I allowed myself to stretch for a long weekend. But this had no impact on Tumbleweed: it just kept on rolling. There was some additional ‘confusion’ though as the system used to calculate the diff between snapshots has been defunct for a few days, which resulted in the announcements for snapshots 0601 – 0604 not being sent out to the mailing lists. The info was then collected in the report for 0605. This review covers the 10 snapshots 0601, 0602, 0603, 0604, 0605, 0607, 0608, 0610, 0612, and 0613.
The most relevant changes in those snapshots were:
- AppArmor 3.1.4 & 3.1.5
- LibreOffice 7.5.4.1
- openSSL 3.1
- GNOME 44.2
- Linux kernel 6.3.6 & 6.3.7
- openSSH 9.3p1
- KDE Gear 23.04.2
- KDE Frameworks 5.107.0
- Mozilla Firefox 114
- Mesa 23.1.2
Shortly, Tumbleweed will bring you these changes:
- Python 3.11 as the default Python interpreter (moving from Python 3.10). About 100 Python packages failed to rebuild: those will still have the python3- symbol on the python310-* package until fixed.
- LibreOffice 7.5.4.2
- PHP 8.1.20
- Qt 5.15.10
