openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the week 2023/25

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

Finally back on the weekly review cycle – are we taking bets on how long I can keep it up (summertime is ‘terrible’ – it motivates too much to take Fridays off). Anyway, even without me there, you are used to Tumbleweed rolling. Lately, all the excellent work on Staging Is being performed by Ana. During this week, we managed to publish again 6 snapshots (the 7th was in QA, but took slightly longer to test than the next one needed to build).

The 6 snapshots (0614, 0616, 0617, 0619, 0620, and 0620) brought you those changes:

  • Python 3.11 has been set as the default Python interpreter
  • libzypp: fix for stricter http/2 RFC 9113 server implementations: trim custom headers
  • Qt 5.15.10
  • PHP 8.1.20
  • LibreOffice 7.5.4.2
  • poppler 23.06.0
  • LLVM 16.0.6
  • node.JS 20.3.0
  • Mozilla Firefox 114.0.2
  • KDE Plasma 5.27.6

Integration tests are currently being performed on these planned changes:

  • Linux kernel 6.3.9
  • Protobuf 22.5: please help to sort out the failures in Staging:K
  • util-linux 2.39
  • Mesa 23.1.3
  • PHP 8.2.7: Nextcloud was updated to 26.0.3, which claims to support PHP 8.2
