Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
The winter holiday period is upon us, and the number of requests
submitted to Factory is getting lower (I even managed to have an empty
review queue for a couple of minutes yesterday). But small snapshots
never stopped Tumbleweed – and it kept on rolling, again with 7
snapshots released during this week (1216…1222)
The most relevant changes included are:
* Pipewire 0.3.63
* sqlite3: CVE-2022-46908: relying on –safe for execution of
untrusted CLI scripts
* systems: CVE-2022-4415
* XFCE 4.18 (update in progress, not the entire stack is there yet,
please be patient)
* Node.JS 19.3.0
* Mozilla Firefox 108.0.1
* NetworkManager 1.40.8
* Linux kernel 6.1.0
* Bash 5.2.15
As a lot of people are already enjoying some time off, a few resources
are missing to fix the fallout in the staging projects, which means the
list stays, to a large degree, the same as last week:
* Util-linux 2.38.0 (Snapshot 1223+)
* Boost 1.81.0: breaks libetonyek and LibreOffice
* Ruby 3.2 (currently RC) is being tested to become the default ruby
version (switch would happen when ruby 3.2 sees a final release)
* Switch to openSSL 3: tracked in Staging:N, main failures are
nodejs18, nodejs19, OpenSSH, mariadb
* Python pytest 7.2.0
Cheers,
Dominique
