[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.20
by Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar 30 Mar '16

30 Mar '16

Hello dear GNOME users, As most of you are well aware, GNOME 3.20 has been released last Wednesday and everybody is eagerly awaiting it to land in Tumbleweed. The current situation is very promising: * All packages are completed * Submission to openSUSE:Factory started around rc1 (3.19.91) and all fallouts have been fixed in time * openQA passed all the tests * All reviews (except two late-arrivals from today) have been completed. So, with this progress, I am pretty condifdent that we can have GNOME 3.20 in the 0330 snapshot. With this stable release being in place I will also enable publishing of GNOME:Factory again - so users of the devel project will receive the update a bit earlier. Hope you enjoy your new GNOME! Dominique

[opensuse-gnome] drop xchat

Hi, I've been using xchat for ages now. Now I found a bug which was also references in Debian bugtracking and following this I found that 1. xchat has a fork hexchat 2. xchat was dropped from Debian for being unmaintained and hexchat being available as an easy replacement I have switched to hexchat now as it's already in 42.1. Therefore I'm wondering if xchat should be dropped from Factory?

[opensuse-gnome] What's the status of upgrading to GNOME-3.20?
by Roy Mu 04 Mar '16

Hi folks! I'm here to learn the status of the plan to upgrade GNOME. Before that, I'd like to share my status and current work. I'm trying to fix bnc#882801, and related patches associated with our plan to upgrade NM, in case we did redundant work nonconforming with upstream. So I have to learn the status of GNOME upgrading. At present, what I concern is the upgrade of NetworkManager-1.0.10 which is the officially recommended for product usage, obviously it requires higher GNOME than our current 3.10. According to LFS(Linux From Scratch), I think higher than GNOME-3.18 is enough. Moreover, the fate#320455 requires a new feature "captive portal handling" introduced since GNOME-3.14. And here're my questions: 1. What's the expected date to upgrade to GNOME-3.20? 2. Do we confirm to take NM-1.0.10, or maybe higher, say, NM-1.2? The later is unstable yet, but if our whole upgrade work lasts more than 6 months, maybe NM-1.2 will be stable at that time. I'm not too eager to pursue the newest package, but it saves our work if I managed to commit some patches to the upstream. I would like to help if any related.
