Blender 2.80 is here!!! Solus repo's where are you!?!?

Kaizaki

Ok ok I know I can just download and compile the source code, but still wouldn't it be better to update the repo's?
cause many new comers are getting attracted to solus! And Blender's new 2.80 update is like major and every ones dying for it! And unlike firefox's minor updates this one matters!!
Thanks in advance!

https://dev.getsol.us/T8195 in short we need to update first a bunch of core stuff which won't be an easy task

What about using the blender from the steam store until the repo is updated?

remoof It's also available as a snap or flatpak if people are really keen on using it.

remoof Justin don't worry I've downloaded and installed the program directly from blender.( I even mentioned it!) And I was talking about newcomers.

Kaizaki I think people come to Solus because it's curated rolling-release, not for bleeding-edge must have the latest version or I'll explode.

Hey Kaizaki, I read : Blender 2.80 is here!!! Solus repo's where are you!?!?
Please take it easy. I do not like this tone. Everyone over here is working for 0,00 euro, it's all for free and everyone is doing the best he can. Please take care with that. Solus is not only a "Blender-club".

Greetings,

Evert.
