[opensuse-factory] openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the Weeks 2016/34
Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Time seems to be flying, it feels like I only just wrote review of week 33 and now week 34 is already over again. A perfect moment to look back what the three snapshots (0818, 0820 and 0822) offered us. * GNOME Weather – New Map provider * A lot of YaST updates * Kernel Firmware 20160804 * Skanlite 2.0 – ported to KDE Framework 5 * Linux Kernel 4.7.1 * GCC 6.2 RC1 Quite the list, updated kernel, updated compiler. One snapshot had been discarded this week: we are trying to align the usage of /etc/os- release which resulted in Tumbleweeds snapshot version to be shown in GRUB. What will be coming your way soon: * GCC 6.2 * ModemManager 1.6.0 – I know some of you are waiting for it * Linux Kernel 4.7.2 – Upstream is fast, so are we * Pattern changes: The ‘Minimal Server Selection’ was removed from the installer. It was basically identical to the ‘Server (Text Mode)’ entry * KDE Applications 16.08.0 * KDE Framework 5.25.0 * Plasma 5.7.4 Have a great time! Dominique

* GNOME Weather – New Map provider
The attentive reader saw: GNOME Maps of course uses a new MAP Provider. GNOME Weather is just suffering from a similar problem, as the used API Provider went offline (updates pending) Apologies for that. Cheers, Dominique
