EbonJaeger Thank you, crucial information i previously did not have/know. 🙂

On one of my Plasma PCs Vivaldi couldn't connect to the keyring so rebooted again to see if it was the wheel group but no. So just ploughed on after reboot with data loss and resync'd Vivaldi seems all good now.

all good
but 'updating manpages database' is taking a long time (maybe a minute), maybe it always did but i only started noticing in recent weeks. is it supposed to take that long, and is there anything i could/should do about it?

Yes it takes a long time, no there is nothing you can do.

EbonJaeger I gotta say, these weekly update posts have evolved wonderfully. They are comprehensive, very informative, and explain complex and important changes in a way that even non-technical users can follow. It's clear that Solus has its userbase in mind.
Moreover, I really like the writing style.
This extra work you put into these notes—on top of the workload you already have keeping Solus up-to-date—is very much appreciated indeed!

Sebastian Its one those small/big things Solus does that benefits both Users and devs
and I agree with your view.
Keeps everyone on the same page which is great.
Thanks to the Solus to for making everything Possible.

Due to the time difference, I only just did the update. After cherry-picking.

I was using hplip before, and it's still working after the update. So your fix must have been successful. Thanks!

I performed the update manually in the console.

Then I started Solseek before the reboot:

After the reboot, it was OK again:

AlphaElwedritsch Scared me for a bit. 🤣 Likely to do with the font updates.

Updated the Gnome box - went well 🙂
Updated this XFCE laptop - no problems 🙂
Updated my oldest dual core Sony XFCE laptop circa 2009 - went well 🙂

Thanks

The update went smoothly on Plasma with no errors.
Like some others I have a problem with Wine but can see there is already a separate thread dealing with that. The issue is already being looked into, many thanks to our wonderful Solus Team.

Everything is fine on XFCE. Thanks to the team

The only issue I have is the font change in the terminals like Alacritty or Kitty I have installed on Budgie.
It's no longer Hack font which is set in Budgie font settings.

My current workaround is to set Hack font in Alacritty config:

[font.bold]
family = "hack"
style = "Bold"

[font.bold_italic]
family = "hack"
style = "Bold Italic"

[font.italic]
family = "hack"
style = "Italic"

[font.normal]
family = "hack"
style = "Regular"

Everything is fine on KDE, thanks, good day!

50 Solus updates processed today and nothing unusual to report.

After restarting my computer, I can confirm that the hplip application is OK, thanks. 👍

Harvey works for me fine / KDE

Will we see (the very new) vivaldi 7.8 in next sync or as a cherry-pick?
