All good on Plasma.

It's just you then
brent it's a new package in repo, but you must install it first to use it
EbonJaeger As a reminder, you do not have to reinstall to get 4.6. All you have to do is install the weekly updates as normal.
anything else would have surprised me too
Install once, update forever
AlphaElwedritsch t's a new package in repo, but you must install it first to use it

app.

126MB the smallest sync update i've ever get...
where does fastfetch get its information from?
Probably not from lsb-release?
It's stupid that 4.5 still says "Solus resilience". Where does fastfetch get the name from?

AlphaElwedritsch where does fastfetch get its information from?
/etc/os-release the file belonging to the baselayout
package that we can not update until the epoch repo is in place. Work is underway to allow us to update this information without updating the baselayout
package.

'Users with the proprietary NVIDIA drivers and the 6.10 kernel may experience a black screen or errors on a black screen after waking the system from sleep' <- Seems that I am in this situation. Is there an issue somewhere that I could follow to get information on this?
cherry-picked discord 0.0.72
Downsite I think these two:
https://github.com/getsolus/packages/issues/4048
https://github.com/getsolus/packages/issues/1054
But there have been some discussions on Matrix related to the 6.10 (and up) kernel specifically that don't seem to be reflected in the issue tickets.
Cherry-picked networkmanager-libreswan for CVE-2024-9050
Staudey at this point I'm not investing too much time into Plasma 6.1 debugging since Plasma 6.2 is almost upon us (I actually don't have a plasma 6.1 system to test with anymore). It's likely that some issues of that nature might be resolved by the upcoming version, if not we can look further at that point.
I mentioned this yesterday in another thread but posting it here for more visibility.
Sync has been deferred to give additional time for testing of Gnome 47.1, Kernel 6.11.5, nvidia driver improvements etc.
Harvey KDE 6.2.2 ?
