Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
The last two weeks have been average weeks when it comes to the number of snapshots and updates. We have released a total of 6 snapshots. From a user point of view, I think this is actually a pretty good pace. The 6 snapshots were 0815, 0820, 0822, 0823, 0824 and 0828.
The snapshots brought you those updates:
- KDE Applications 19.08.0
- KDE Frameworks 5.61.0
- openSUSE-welcome has been newly added
- pkg-config was dropped in favor of pkgconf
- libvirt 5.6.0
- XFCE 4.14.0
- Linux kernel 5.2.9 & 5.2.10
- poppler 0.79
- vlc 3.0.8
- CMake 3.15.1
- gawk 5.0.1
- Mesa 19.1.5
- GCC 9.2.1
- util-linux 2.34
Some things that I reported work in progress two weeks ago are still pending. At the moment, the staging areas are filled with:
- glibc 2.30
- Swig 4 (libsolv fix just arrived today)
- Inclusion of python-tornado 5 & 6 (waiting for salt to declare proper dependencies in the package)
- Linux kernel 5.2.11
- filesystem changes: /etc/cron.* will no longer be generally available. BuildRequire cron in your packages if you install files there (or better yet, migrate to systemd timers)
