  • Dominique Leuenberger ☛ openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the week 2024/24

    Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

    The week was unspectacular, seeing that staging projects mostly were in and out within 24 hours. We, the release managers, like this, as it implies that the package maintainers submitted things that worked and did not need much of our extra attention. This does not mean that nothing was going through; the opposite is the case: just over 500 requests have been accepted in the last 7 days.

    Lots of updated packages; however, I left 'flatpak' at version 1.12.8, same as in Kirkstone.

    In Kirkstone, there was a reason for staying with 1.12.x, as 1.13 and later moved from 'appstream-glib' dependency to 'appstream', and I was unable to compile the latter.
