Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, During the last two weeks, there has been a quite constant flow of Tumbleweed snapshots – despite SUSE folks being occupied with hackweek. To cut through the case: Weeks 27 & 28 delivered a total of 9 snapshots (0628, 0629, 0701, 0702, 0703, 0704, 0707, 0709 and 0710) The relevant updates in overview: * Linux kernel 4.17.3 & 4.17.4 * bcm43xx-firmware added support for BCM 4356 PCI devices * KDE Plasma 5.13.2 * fwupdate 11: new support for Lenovo devices * FFmpeg 4.0.1 * Many yast updates, containing translated keywords * Mozilla Firefox 61.0 * LibreOffice 6.1.0 (beta2) * Mesa 18.1.3 * coreutils 8.30 * emacs 26.1 * squid 4.1 The following things are either already in a snapshot work-in-progress or will hopefully be added soon: * Linux kernel 4.17.5 (and newer) * file 5.33: beware: it now detects PI-Executables correctly, no longer identifies them just as shared objects. * LibreOffice 6.1.0 final version * KDE Plasma 5.13.3 * X.Org 1.12 (still needs some love) * poppler 0.66 (as usual, texlive and cups-filters are the prominent consumers failing) * Preparations for Java 11 as the default java compiler cheers, Dominique
