Darktable 5.6.1 comes two months after Darktable 5.6 with a small UI performance boost by reverting the increased preview pipe dimension, as well as support for copying color labels, ratings, and manually applied geotags to images created by AI denoise and upscale, in addition to EXIF data and tags.

Coming only a week after COSMIC 1.6, the COSMIC 1.7 release is a small update that updates the COSMIC Compositor with improved support for scalable cursors so that they won’t be blurry when their size is increased, the ability to increase the zoom with each keypress, and support for magnifying the cursor when it’s shaken.
Coming two and a half months after Ardour 9.7, the Ardour 9.8 release introduces initial scales support to let you visualize out-of-scale notes and choose if you want to avoid creating them entirely when composing and improvising in a specific musical key, as well as support for the Novation Launchkey 88 Mk4 and Arturia Drumbrute controllers.
Coming two and a half months after OpenSSL 4.0.1, the OpenSSL 4.0.2 release is here to address several important security vulnerabilities, including a heap buffer overflow in CMS key unwrapping (CVE-2026-63072), excessive memory use buffering DTLS records (CVE-2026-54874), and a client-side memory leak in OCSP response checking (CVE-2026-54876).
It was on August 25th, 1991, that the 21-year-old Finnish student Linus Benedict Torvalds made his now-famous announcement on the comp.os.minix newsgroup that he was working on a free operating system for 386 (486) AT clones, just as a “hobby”.
Shelly 3.1 is here to introduce support for building Arch Linux packages through a new shelly build command that’s part of the native package-management library, not a wrapper around makepkg. It writes makepkg-compatible entries and produces archives that pacman and other Arch Linux tools understand.
