this week in fedora (2018w50)
Another week, another batch of updates and fixes. There’s new features for the
sequeler
SQL client, improved settings plugs for switchboard
, bug fixes
for the Date & Time indicator for wingpanel
, and first steps toward fixing
the broken window menus for applications in gala
.
fedora updates
application updates
I’ve updated the sequeler
SQL client to the latest version, which introduces
the ability to open SQLite
files directly from the user interface, among
other fixes and improvements.
package | version | releases | changes |
---|---|---|---|
sequeler | 0.6.4 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29, 1.fc28 | 0.6.3 → 0.6.4 |
elementary updates
I’ve pushed updates for both the Accessibility and the Network switchboard
plugs to fedora. Both updates include improved searchability and updated
translations.
package | version | releases | changes |
---|---|---|---|
switchboard-plug-a11y | 2.1.3 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29, 1.fc28 | 2.1.2 → 2.1.3 |
switchboard-plug-networking | 2.1.4 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29, 1.fc28 | 2.1.3 → 2.1.4 |
I also pushed a minor update for the Pantheon PolKit agent to fedora, which includes a visual fix and updated translations.
package | version | releases | changes |
---|---|---|---|
pantheon-agent-polkit | 0.1.6 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29, 1.fc28 | 0.1.5 → 0.1.6 |
There was a bug-fix release for the Date & Time indicator for wingpanel this week too, which I’ve pushed to fedora 29 and rawhide.
package | version | releases | changes |
---|---|---|---|
wingpanel-indicator-datetime | 2.1.3 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29 | 2.1.2 → 2.1.3 |
I’ve also pushed updates for the gala
window manager, which should be the
first step towards fixing the missing / broken window menus on most application
windows.
package | version | releases | changes |
---|---|---|---|
gala | 0.3.1 | 0.18.20181216.git7f1e392.fc30, 0.18.20181216.git7f1e392.fc29 | 66a95e0 → 7f1e392 |
COPR updates
elementary-staging
I’ve also pushed the latest version of the Date & Time plug for switchboard
to my COPR repositories. It contains some bug fixes, but I doubt that it
substantially improves upon the broken situation on fedora.
package | version | release | changes |
---|---|---|---|
switchboard-plug-datetime | 2.1.5 | 1 | 2.1.4 → 2.1.5 |
