GCC, EFI Boot Manager Update in Tumbleweed (UPDATED)

posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Mar 23, 2023,
updated Mar 25, 2023

Rolling-release distribution openSUSE Tumbleweed had a large number of security patches, bug fixes, and new features in snapshots released this week.

Users who did a zypper dup had a full distribution rebuild with GNU Compiler Collection 13, which is the distro’s new default compiler.

This rebuild 20230319 snapshot provided a GCC 13.0.1+git update that rebased a patch and enables a mutual exclusion (mutex) link. An update of flatpak 1.14.4 updated translations and eliminated two Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures; CVE-2023-28101 and CVE-2023-28100, which was specific to virtual consoles and users were recommended to use a graphical user interface like GNOME Software rather than graphical terminal emulator such as xterm , gnome-terminal or Konsole. The C++ library for Single Instruction, Multiple Data highway 1.0.4 provides faster KV128 sorting. The package also updated RISC-V Vector Extension Intrinsics for the 1.0-draft. Other packages to update was libstorage-ng 4.5.86 along with several libqt5 packages.

openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the week 2023/12

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

This week we released only 5 snapshots, but one was hefty in size and we needed the extra time for the mirrors to settle again and get the bandwidth back under control. The large snapshot was due to the change in the default compiler: Tumbleweed has been rebuilt entirely using GCC 13. The released snapshots were numbered 0316, 0317, 0318, 0319, and 0321.
