Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
After all the troubles and successes of the last weeks, this one felt less spectacular and more like a smooth sail, which was a welcome change. Submissions were incoming at about the same rate as we could process them, which is a great sign.
We have published six snapshots (0830, 0901…0905) containing these changes:
- PHP 8.3.11
- Linux kernel 6.10.7
- freerdp 3.8.0
- Ruby 3.3.5
- Libvirt 10.7.0
The backlog looks reasonably good, nothing has been there for too long. As a small overview, we are currently testing the integration of:
- Linux kernel 6.10.8
- Boost 1.86: breaks LibreOffice / cmis; fixes are in the works
- go 1.23 as default go compiler: ignition is broken. An upstream bug is filed, and a possible fix/workaround is submitted to the development project
- grub2 change: Introduces a new package, grub2-x86_64-efi-bls; fixes for installation-images were submitted today; tests pending
- Python Sphinx 8.0.2
- Python Numpy 2.1.0
- Change of the default LSM (opted in at installation) to SELinux. AppArmor is still an option, just not the default. This change only impacts new installations
- perl-Bootloader will be renamed to update-bootloader: it’s been a while since there was no Perl code. Some openQA tests need to be adjusted for this (https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/165686)
- Mesa > 24.1.3: we keep on seeing openQA issues whenever we update to a version newer than 24.1.3, but so far could not yet pinpoint what is going wrong
