Dominique Leuenberger ☛ Tumbleweed – Review of the week 2026/7
Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
Another week, another steady flow of updates for openSUSE Tumbleweed! During this seventh week of 2026, we successfully rolled out a total of five snapshots: 0205, 0206, 0207, 0209, and 0212.
If you keep a close eye on the factory mailing list, you might have noticed the missing announcement for snapshot 0209. Rest assured, the snapshot itself was built and published flawlessly. Unfortunately, a backend service fault in the diff generator prevented the notification from being sent out. Because the service couldn’t mark 0209’s announcement as “done,” it treated the snapshot as unpublished from a notification standpoint. As a result, the changelog for 0209 was simply rolled up and merged into the rather large announcement email for snapshot 0212.
