Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
This week we have released 5 snapshots (0209, 0211, 0212, 0213, and 0214). With 5 snapshots, this is quite a normal week.
The most relevant changes in those snapshots were:
- SDL 2.30.0
- c-ares 1.26.0 (after a lengthy staging phase)
- fwupd 1.9.13
- PostgreSQL 16.2
- Pulseaudio 17.0
- GTK 4.12.5
- Python 3.11.8
- KDE Frameworks 5.115.0
- RPM 4.19.1.1
- Node.JS 21.6.1
The list of things currently being tested remained largely unchanged:
- Meson 1.3.2
- Shadow 4.14.5
- pkgconf 2.1.1
- RPM: enable reproducible builds by default (bsc#1148824). For upstream versions see: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/2880
- A bunch of cleanup work to eliminate more of python2 (boo#1219306)
- dbus-broker: a big step forward; upgrades seem to be an issue that needs to be addressed
- libxml 2.12.x: slow progress
- GCC 14: our usual 2-phase approach to introduce it. Currently working on phase 1, meaning GCC14 will be providing the base libraries (libgcc_s1, libstdc++…). The compiler itself will stay at version 13 for now. Only one issue left: qemu fails to build
