Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
Week 35 felt a little calmer. Our packagers delivered high-quality submissions that required little intervention from release engineering once staged. When things just work, they tend to go unnoticed. We published four snapshots this week, namely 0822, 0825, 0826, and 0827.
The most noteworthy changes in these snapshots were:
- GNU Gettext 0.26
- ImageMagick 7.1.2.1 & 7.1.2.2
- bind 9.20.12
- nftables 1.1.4
- Python 3.13.7
- kdump 2.1.6
- colord 1.4.8 / colord-gtk 0.3.1
- GStreamer 1.26.5
- Linux kernel 6.16.3
- mozjs 128.14.0
- system-users: all system users are now configured to be ‘fully locked’ (as per man sysusers.d). This means not only is an invalid password set, but any login method is denied for these users
Staging projects and QA are currently busy on these updates:
- Migrate to use ffmpeg-8 by default
- Qt 6.9.2
- Linux kernel 6.16.4
- GCC 15.2
- Mozilla Firefox 142: mozilla-nss 3.115.1 breaks the build of certmonger
