Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, I have the feeling this year is moving a bit faster than me. Not sure why. But Tumbleweed is keeping up with the fast pace and we have seen five full snapshots released during the week 2020/05 (0123, 0124, 0125, 0127 and 0128). Those snapshots brought you those major changes: * Libvirt 6.0.0 * SQLite 3.30.1 * Mozilla Firefox 72.0.2 * Shadow 4.8 * Linux kernel 5.4.14 * PostgreSQL 12 * gettext 0.20.1 Some of the big topics from last week are still held up in stagings. Seems are progressing, but more help is appreciated. Things currently being worked on: * Qt 5.14.1 (Snapshot 0130+) * Python 3.8 * Removal of python 2 * libcap 2.30: breaks fakeroot and drpm * GNU make 4.3: has some major incompatibilities. Observe fallouts at in Staging:O. * KDE Plasma 5.18 (currently beta being tested) * Linux kernel 5.5 * netcfg moves a few files from /etc to /usr/etc (services,. protocols): currently, AppArmor is blocking access to those files, so we need some changes there (Snapshot 0130 and later) * RPM: Change of the database format from bdb to ndb * Initial work is being done for GCC10 Cheers, Dominique
