and I'm still receiving over 2500 new packages. Dimstar told us this was coming. I've not seen the traditional "New Tumbleweed snapshot..." announcement for this heavy update. It is on the list, as usual.
No, not as usual but under a different Subject, may be this is the reason why I unnoticed it.
*/Brace for impact: Snapshot 20210212 is a full rebuild based on glibc 2.33/
There were two messages:
1) an extra heads-up about the size of the snapshot
https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/G...
2) the regular announcement when 20210212 was released
https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/F...
I don't think there is anything that was missing from the announcement perspective - only from the reader perspective. Of course it is never easy to follow all mailing lists and upfront identify, based on subject, if that is really relevant. Ideas for improvements are welcome.
I have a separate folder under my openSUSE folder in my e-mail that all emails that have the words "new" and "snapshot" in the subject are moved to the "snapshot" folder. For this folder I have turned notifications on. As such I was fully aware of the large upgrade size. Maybe that's an idea to keep track of the snapshots and keep it separate from the other emails. /Syds
