Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, This week, we were finally getting some fixes together for the glibc/i586 issues that plagued us for a while. Unfortunately, also for the x86_64 users, this meant once again a full rebuild of the distribution (which was published just recently with snapshot 0311). But the 4 snapshots published during this week (0305, 0306, 0307, and 0311) also had something for everybody anyway. The main changes in those 4 snapshots include: * glibc: Disable x86 ISA level for now * Linux kernel 5.11.2 & 5.11.4 * gnutls 3.7.0 * openssl 1.1.1j, based on a centralized crypto-policy package * Libvirt 7.1.0 * KDE Applications 20.12.3 * KDE Plasma 5.21.2 * LibreOffice 7.1.1.2 That actually almost is everything I had listed last week as coming soon. Only GCC 11 as the default compiler remained, and that one is still going to be with us for a few weeks. But things did not stop there, and the stagings are already filled with other things again: * Linux kernel 5.11.6 * Python 3.9 modules: besides python36-FOO and python38-FOO, we are testing to also shop python39-FOO modules; we already have the interpreter after all. Python 3.8 will remain the default for now. * UsrMerge is gaining some traction again, thanks to Ludwig for pushing for it * GCC 11 as default compiler Cheers, Dominique
