linux-firmware, sof-firmware, and iptables cherry-picked to fix an issue caused by moving files from /lib64/ to /usr/lib64 (in preparation for the upcoming usr-merge) where not all compat symlinks were created. This would cause issues where certain hardware would fail to load the proper firmware files, breaking graphics, wifi/bluetooth, sound, and other devices.

topolojack just updated, rebooted, and my wifi and bluetooth are gone. no option to connect to any wireless networks.

Your issue is most likely resolved by the cherry-picks. Hopefully you can use an ethernet port to update, but if not you can download this file from another device and then put it on a USB or something and install it with sudo eopkg it /path/to/file

topolojack also mailspring is gone? a shame, i used and liked that one.

Mailspring developers are frankly incompetent from a security standpoint. They statically build various libraries into the sync binary that they distribute themselves and there is no way for packagers to override it to use system libraries. If you are using mailspring, you are using a version of OpenSSL that is more than 7 years old (!!!) at this point which I have brought to their attention and they simply do not care about it or your security. We cannot in good conscious allow software with such bad security practices to exist in our package repo. If you personally do not care about using insecure software you can use the flatpak though I would note that I am shortly going to open an issue with Flathub admins to investigate whether or not it should be removed there as well.

        ReillyBrogan Appreciate your reply. Re the wireless issue, turned out to an an EFI partition too small problem. Re mailspring, ah, sucks. I didn't know that about it, it just happened to be the email client I found that was compatible with all the email addresses I use.

          No problems with my Plasma or Xfce laptops, but when it came to updating my Budgie VM, I got a $PATH error about AppArmor.

          Same error for my Plasma VM:

          Same error for Xfce VM. Now I'm just wondering if the same error happened when I updated my laptops, and I just wasn't paying attention.

            WetGeek there was yesterday's update that caused some apparmor issues but then there was last night's middle-of-the-night-followup-update-that-fixes-the-apparmor-issues. did you do both updates?
            If you did one today, then you have both I suppose.
            If you are fully up to date then this is the only post I've seen where the apparmor update did not work, but it's been slow here.
            If systemctl status apparmor shows apparmor disabled, and you are fully updated, then it's significant asfaik.
            all I got

                Updated a intel laptop with Plasma and lost integrated audio (speaker icon crossed out), opening the audio volume menu integrated speaker was missing completely, eopkg install sof-firmware --reinstall brought it back.

                Otherwise no issues, thanks all!

                brent all I got

                Thanks for your reply. It's a rare day when I'm not the first (or one of the first) to apply updates, but because of personal issues that generated a lot of stress, I didn't even get to update anything until late Saturday afternoon. And I still had little time to spend on it, so for a change I didn't read any of the other posts before I started updating.

                When I couldn't get to sleep tonight, I fired up my laptop, discovered that another update was available, and installed it. I can confirm that the apparmor issue is gone, and as @Harvey noted, the reboot command now works by itself in the terminal.

                I'm going to start updating all the rest of the machines here, until I'm too sleepy to continue, then I'll try going to bed again.

                    Did this affect the operation of iptables?

                      Whatever is going on in your life (I know only a little of your circumstances, but enough to understand that life might be stressful re. caring for loved ones and such), best wishes that it all works out for the best sooner rather than later. 🤝

                          Thanks for the kind words. Mixed in with the stress, there's been some joy. I found out yesterday that, based on her LSATs, my granddaughter was given a full ride at a law school in Boston. Needless to say, Granddad is really proud of her.

                          The other good news was the cherry-picking that fixed almost everything I could have asked for yesterday. Everything reallly important, anyway.

                            Just updated Gnome.

                            Calc won't print. Just shows a blank page in print preview and prints a blank page.

                            Tried evolution and the printer works for emails.

                            edit: Not a Solus issue. I just copied and pasted the spreadsheet into a new file and it is okay.

                            ReillyBrogan from the reading:
                            "...The vulnerability, which is a signal handler race condition in OpenSSH’s server (sshd), allows unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) as root on glibc-based Linux systems; that presents a significant security risk. This race condition affects sshd in its default configuration.

                            Based on searches using Censys and Shodan, we have identified over 14 million potentially vulnerable OpenSSH server instances exposed to the Internet..."

                            "they" never sleep and either do you all! 🙂

                              Cherry-picked yt-dlp 2024.07.01
                              (Didn't read the CVE properly seems it only affects Windows but whatever, done now).

                                I had. It didn't play and (memory dump) sudo eopkg it gstreamer-1.0-plugins-good helped. But I don't know it's the same error.

                                  Harvey endeavour pushed this very update this morning if it makes you feel any better 🙂

                                    pomon already got it installed
                                    I did an reinstall sudo eopkg it --reinstall gstreamer-1.0-plugins-good but it didn't help me 🙁

                                    p.s. did a health check and looks like I have a lot of corrupted files after last update:
