Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, It’s been another week in which the weed has been steadily tumbling. A solid three snapshots have been published this week (with a 4th one being tested right now in openQA) The snapshots brought you those goodies: * GNOME 3.18.2 * KDE Applications 15.08.3 * Many other smaller fixes (sddm 0.13, python-coverage update) The snapshot currently running through openQA (20151118) will bring some bigger additions: * the new default system fonts (that’s why it takes a bit longer: all needles in staging had of course been updated, but the full Tumbleweed QA has > 70 tests compared to the ~10 running in Stagings, so a bunch more needles missing). With the current progress, though, we should be able to expect QA to pass later today or on the weekend. * Ghostscript 9.18: it did cause a few build failures in stagings already (renamed error variables); so if you’re building anything against it, you might be hit by this too. * X.Org 1.18: if you’re running binary blob drivers, you might want to block off this update. The vendors might take some time to get their drivers in shape. * Masa 11.0.5: addressing a bunch of stability issue with nouveau and i965 drivers The staging projects are currently all busy – Some of them need your help to resolve the pending issues. The main updates causing issues are: * Boost 1.59: I think everybody expects issues with a new boost version by now. This time around, all but one have been fixed: cmis- client still fails on ppc64le. * GStreamer 1.6: most of the packages seem ready for this. The critical component missing is Phonon Besides all those updates, we’re struggling a lot with building java- related packages since the update of Kernel to version 4.3.0 – it seems this kernel, running as guest in KVM, triggers some bugs that are only seen when building / running java related things (see also boo#954218 [0]) With all this, I wish you a great weekend – and always remember: Have a lot of fun.
