Citfta

Use Solseek. It will prompt you when it is time to reboot.

elusian hmm good point, yes, I'm pretty sure it will get interrupted.

bear in this it only affects man -f and man -k functionality so not the end of the world

We may tweak things with this in mind

Budgie ok

I havent been following but kernel updated fine this time.

First time in awhile for me.

penny-farthing

57 packages were updated today in Solus and nothing to report since.
Thanks.

davidjharder

Cherrypicked golang for security fixes

BuzzPCSOS

All went well on Plasma. Excellent new features. Thank you.

Phiqu

Xfce updated without any problems.

EbonJaeger The default update flow now goes from 1) install new kernel, 2) install current kernel, 3) remove oldest kernel (three kernels installed at most) to 1) install current kernel, 2) remove oldest kernel, 3) install new kernel (two kernels installed at most).

After my morning reboot, following last night's full update on Solus Budgie, I was left with 4 kernels not 2.
The update didn't seem to remove all old kernels, to leave 2 as expected.

elfprince I believe that is because you have both the current and LTS kernels installed. It'll keep two versions of each, if I understand correctly.

KDE Plasma. After updating and installing new apps, the new apps didn't appear in the application launcher even though their .desktop files exist under /usr/share/applications/
Solved by running: kbuildsycoca6 --noincremental

All good, thank you team.

All good after update and my AMD Thinkpad seems to love Kernel 7!

The only bad Thing is that i can not install Copyous extension on Gnome.

It needs some Dependencies that Solus not has. 🙁

https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/8834/copyous/

"Fedora sudo dnf install libgda libgda-sqlite

Arch Linux sudo pacman -S libgda6

Ubuntu/Debian sudo apt install gir1.2-gda-5.0 gir1.2-gsound-1.0

openSUSE sudo zypper install libgda-6_0-sqlite typelib-1_0-Gda-6_0 typelib-1_0-GSound-1_0"

EbonJaeger

totalmongobaer We have libgda.

sudo eopkg install libgda

totalmongobaer

libgda was alredy installed and i search for all other Dependencies and all other that Solus has in the Repos was installed.

When i click to install the Copyous extension than i get a Systemcrash with logout and after login the sytem booting Gnome without activated Extensions. I must deinstall Copyous first to use the system again with other extensions. It was the same Problem on Gnome 49 too and now with Gnome 50 , but only on Solus!

i see linux 7.0.6 has arrived in unstable, supposedly it fully fixes the dirty frag thing (ill be damned if i can find the article that said so now)
is the plan to push it asap because of the vulnerability since 7.0.5 was just a partial fix, or will you wait until the usual weekend sync?

thanks

Harvey

mini-sync to pull in more kernel fixes for dirtyfrag. But there is a lot more in this mini-sync than that.

We wanted it to sit in unstable for some testing first.

Lucien_Lachance maybe this? https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-7.0.6-Released

Mini-sync went ok on a Budgie Skylake/Maxell system, barring the following file conflicts during installation;

envsubst-1.0-22-1-x86_64.eopkg [cached]
Installing envsubst, version 1.0, release 22

I assume these was resolved on reboot, though the above files still exist, guess they can be ingnored?

Harvey

The conflicts resolve themselves once the update is complete. It is just file ownership moving between packages. Working as intended you can ignore it.

Mini mid week sync done on Plasma - all good.

penny-farthing

Mini sync OK on Budgie and nothing to report since.

Will there be another sync this weekend, or will the next one not take place until next week?

alfisya

penny-farthing Probably delayed but we will see.
