LLVM, sudo, Plasma update in Tumbleweed
Besides updates for LLVM, sudo and KDE’s Plasma, packages like systemd, curl, strace and tracker also gained software updates.
An update of gnome-terminal 3.46.3 arrived in snapshot 20221101. The package updated translations, put to use a new icon and removed XML namespaces. Other GNOME packages updated in the snapshot like document viewer evince 43.1. The document viewer fixes a crash and avoids a rendering issue. An update of glib2 2.74.1 had a patch that reverts the handling of collisions between standard input/output file descriptors and newly created ones, which solves the password and secrets storer gnome-keyring-daemon from eating 100 percent CPU. The building blocks package for libraries and applications written in C also fixes regression with int64, which is used to represent 64-bit signed integers; the package also fixes various build failures in different situations. Terminal Emulators vte 0.70.1 implemented the clipboard for GTK4, added a define for Apple’s darwin and fixed a filter for unwanted environment variables. Macedonian translations were added with an update to yast2-trans. A few other packages were updated in the snapshot.
The new major version of the diagnostic, debugging and instructional userspace package strace was made available in the 20221031 snapshot. The 6.0 version updates the decoding of setns system call, which allows for the calling thread to move into different namespaces, and updates the lists of ioctl commands related to Linux Kernel 6.0. The package update of timezone 2022f will let people reading this Tumbleweed blog know that Mexico no longer observes daylight savings except near the US border. Chihuahua moves to year-round time, but it’s unclear if that is for the state or the city. The timezone update changes the time for Fiji as it also no longer observes daylight savings. The few Python Package Index and RubyGems packages were updated in the snapshot as well.
