New Year, new ISOs! We are proud to announce our latest release: Solus 4.7 Endurance. This release focuses on updating our editions, and refreshing the default kernels. We’ve called this release Endurance to highlight our promise to users that we will continue to deliver timely updates to keep their systems stable and beautiful.

Check out the full blog post here.

"This release I would like to highlight the work done by our newly-minted Solus Cleanup Crew ™. This wonderful group has been working through a series of tasks that require a particular kind of dedication. As an example, take a look at the homepage task. More than a year ago, we started a clean-up of one particular field in the files that define our packages. Now, we’re very close to finishing that task, which required editing 2,300 packages. You can follow their work in the Contributor Round-ups we publish from time to time on our forum." --djh

Try a new Software Center
We encourage you to try one of the new Software Centers as a replacement for solus-sc (Solus Software Center).

Means SC is still available in the new ISO, or not?

    Thank you for your great work guys

    We are just imploring (strongly) users to try the new software centers (GNOME Software and KDE Discover).

    Good work. I installed GNOME Software, and then ran "Updates" and was delighted to see that my Flatpaks immediately update, which is an important feature given the growing prevalence of Flatpak. The new Software Centers bring Solus into the mainstream.

    Zenurik There are still <200 GUI apps (from our repo) that is not visible yet in those new software centers. We are still working on adding appstream metainfo to them. We also want to retire solus-sc, and all other python 2 packages at the same time.

    alfisya I searched for "discover" in the Software Center on Solus Plasma, and I don't see it listed. Dolphin and Gnome Software show up in the search results, but unless I'm missing something Discover doesn't. The only thing I see that looks somewhat related is "PackageKit backend". I see discover listed in the packages repo on Github. Do you have to install Discover using eopkg in the terminal?

      very good work, everything perfect with Gnome

      flanier The only thing I see that looks somewhat related is "PackageKit backend"

      Yeah, for some reason solus-sc shows the wrong name. That is indeed "Discover"

      Fresh installation of plasma went well. I had an older version on dvd and was upgraded post installation. There was a system maintenance on the first boot of the new version. I let this run with no problems.

      Downloaded and verified. Boots ok from my Ventoy USB.

      is the iso download supposed to be this slow? roughly 1.8 MB/s
      or should i wait until tomorrow

      Many thanx. No Problems of 4.7 inside a virtualized qemu environment
