I will include all the updates from the last three weeks this time, to get you an overview of what all happened. For this reason, I&#8217;ll cover 10 snapshots: 0905, 0907, 0908, 0916, 0917, 0918, 0920, 0921, 0923 and 0925<\/p>\n<p>The most noteworthy changes include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mozilla Firefox 68.1.0 &amp; 69.0.1<\/li>\n<li>KDE Plasma 5.16.5<\/li>\n<li>KDE Frameworks 5.62.0<\/li>\n<li>KDE Applications 19.08.1<\/li>\n<li>Qt 5.13.1<\/li>\n<li>Linux kernel 5.2.14<\/li>\n<li>Mesa 19.1.7<\/li>\n<li>LibreOffice 6.3.2.2<\/li>\n<li>PulseAudio 13.0<\/li>\n<li>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)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, a lot is still on the backlog and will hopefully find its way into Tumbleweed soon. The main topics in Staging currently are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>glibc 2.30: all issues observed in staging have been resolved, Snapshot 0927 and later should ship it<\/li>\n<li>systemd 243<\/li>\n<li>Linux kernel 5.3.1<\/li>\n<li>poppler0.81.0: again breaking texlive<\/li>\n<li>GStreamer 1.16.1<\/li>\n<li>KDE Plasma 5.17.0: current alphas are staged and being tested<\/li>\n<li>A rework of the way we provide the &#8216;Tumbleweed snapshot&#8217; to build against in OBS. Instead of twice copying binaries around inside OBS, we plan on changing the OBS setup to use DoD (Download On-Demand) for openSUSE:Factory\/snapshot. For the users\/developers, this should not bring any change, no repository reconfiguration is needed. But it helps in largely simplifying the way the sync is done AND it finally stops delete requests \/ multi-spec package changes to bleed into devel projects building against snapshots.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Due to a holiday on my part I had to skip the last two weekly reviews &#8211; which of course doe snot mean Tumbleweed went to sleep, it&#8217;s just that it was given into the capable hand of Max Lin.
