[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed - Review of the week 2015/27

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, First things first: WE DID IT !!! The latest released Tumbleweed snapshot has been completely rebuilt using GCC 5.1 compiler suite. The switch is now complete and GCC 5 is the default compiler. There had been some nasty hidden bugs here and there that had all been fixed, which is why it took a little longer to get the snapshot out. But better tested/failed in openQA than tested/failed on your own machine, right? In these two weeks, of course, we did not stand still and we still accepted submissions (to some degree) to move Tumbleweed forward. We did not just want to give you the 'same, but rebuilt'. Besides GCC 5, these also happened: * KDE Framework 5.11.0 * Some kernel/btrfs fixes (still at version 4.0.5, 4.1 should come soon though) What's being prepared in stagings now? * Perl 5.22 update [0] * Network Manager 1.0.2 * Plasma 5.3.2 Of course none of those are as big as GCC 5 (maybe perl is; some of it's deprecations might cause pain, like "defined(@array)" which has been deprecated since 2012 and now is no longer supported ) [0] https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/openSUSE:Factory:Staging :B?blocked=0&building=0&dispatching=0&finished=0&scheduled=0&signing=0& succeeded=0 -- Dimstar / Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
