this week in fedora (2019w07)
This weeks brings a bunch of updates for elementary packages, but mostly minor bug-fix releases.
fedora updates
I’ve updated the gala
window manager to an up-to-date snapshot of the git
master branch, which brings several improvements around the coming screenshot
support and the Picture-in-Picture mode.
package | version | release | changes |
---|---|---|---|
gala | 0.3.1 | 0.21.20190128.git1a96644.fc30, 0.20.20190128.git1a96644.fc29 | 6654145 → 1a96644 |
The latest version of the elementary icon theme brings some new and some redesigned and refined icons.
package | version | release | changes |
---|---|---|---|
elementary-icon-theme | 5.0.3 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29 | 5.0.2 → 5.0.3 |
The latest release of Files fixes a regression from version 4.1.4
that
caused high CPU usage, and includes some fixes for sorting files.
package | version | release | changes |
---|---|---|---|
elementary-files | 4.1.5 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29 | 4.1.4 → 4.1.5 |
The new release of appcenter
includes many improvements for user experience
and performance - and the build for fedora now also disables the non-functional
homepage elements (“featured” and “trending” applications only work on
elementaryOS).
package | version | release | changes |
---|---|---|---|
appcenter | 3.1.1 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29, 1.fc28 | 3.1.0 → 3.1.1 |
I also pushed a minor bug-fix update for granite, which fixes a typo in my downstream patch that could have lead to crashes due to the GSettings schema compilation not happening correctly at package install time.
I’ve noticed that the people over at NixOS have also included my granite
patch to fix applications that use it on Desktop Environments other than
Pantheon.
package | version | release | changes |
---|---|---|---|
granite | 5.2.3 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29 | 5.2.2 → 5.2.3 |
I’ve also worked to package the libfixposix
library, which is a new dependency
of the latest few versions of the sequeler
SQL client.
package | version | release | changes |
---|---|---|---|
libfixposix | 0.4.3 | 1.fc30, 1.fc29, 1.fc28 | Initial packaging |
