Tumbleweed – Review of the week 2024/50

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

As the end of the year approaches, many contributors are busy in their private lives. Depending on where they are, some might go skiing, some will use the time to visit friends and families, and others will use their free time to contribute to Tumbleweed. Whatever everybody decides to do during this time, do it with a lot of fun! For week 50 at least, people are still around and busy as we could publish 6 snapshots (1205, 1206, 1208, 1209, 1210, and 1211)

The most relevant updates/changes delivered as part of those snapshots were:

  • Qt 6.8.1
  • liibvirt 10.10.0
  • Xen 4.19.1
  • Mesa 24.3.1
  • Python 3.11.11
  • LLVM 19.1.5
  • libeconf 0.7.5
  • GStreamer 1.24.10

In the staging area, we currently see these items tested: depending on the people still working on those items, they might be delivered during this year or early next year

  • Ruby 3.4 (Release date upstream is December 25); we currently test RC1
  • KDE Gear 24.12.0
  • Linux kernel 6.12.4
