Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, After last week being filled with problems, this week felt like a ‘relaxing one’ – not that there would be fewer changes incoming, but we could focus on those changes instead of cuddling the infrastructure. And so it comes that we managed to publish 5 snapshots during this week (1119, 1121, 1123, 1124, and 1125). The most interesting changes included: * GNOME 3.38.1 – it took a while, but at last, it’s there * KDE Frameworks 5.76.0 * Pango 1.48.0 * Mozilla Thunderbird 78.5.0 * binutils 2.35.1 * pam 1.5.0 * Mesa 20.2.3 * Linux kernel 5.9.10 * Qt 5.15.2 And as usual, Tumbleweed does not stop rolling, and staging areas are currently filled with these changes: * GNOME 3.38.2 * Linux kernel 5.9.11 * brp-check-suse: a bug fix in how it detected dangling symlinks (it detected them, but did not fail as it was supposed to) * permissions package: prepares for easier listing, while supporting a full /usr merge * RPM 4.16: still a few packages build failures * Ruby 3.0: mainly YaST not ready for that switch * First experiments with rpmlint 2.0 started in Staging:M * openssl 3.0: currently alpha 9 in Staging:O Cheers, Dominique
