Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Another week comes to an end – and what a week this was for Tumbleweed! A full set of 5 snapshots (0914, 0916, 0917, 0920 and 0921) has been released, with some much anticipated and large changes: * KDE Frameworks 5.26.0 * KDE Applications 16.08.1 * GNOME 3.22.0 * Linux Kernel 4.7.4 * gcc 5.4.1 (for the ones still relying on it; the distro is built using gcc 6.2.1) * Vim 8.0 And if all this was not enough yet, there are things already piling up in Staging and Testing areas: * Steam fix: a workaround to get Steam back on the horse for you * Mozilla Firefox 49.0 The following few things moved to the backlog due to insufficient manpower to get resulting issues fixed: * Freetype 2.7: breaks libgd and python(3)-Pillow’s test suites * EMacs 25.1: needs some work in the packaging area to go on a dependency diet With all those updates, don’t forget to still leave your desk once in a while – and in any case: have a lot of fun! Cheers, Dominique
