Sync updates

Applications updates

  • KDE Gear has been updated to 24.05.1
  • OBS Studio was updated to 30.1.2.
  • Clear Boot Manager (CBM) now supports multiple kernel-dependent initrd extensions. This allows the graphics driver to initialize earlier in the boot, which can reduce flickering.

New application

  • Papers has been added to the repository this cycle. It is a new PDF viewer for the GNOME desktop.

Development updates

  • As a part of our plan to fully remove Python 2, the Solus Software Center will be replaced by GNOME Software and KDE Discover, since we don't have the developers to maintain the Solus SC application.
  • In order for us to be able to do that, AppStream metainfo files have to be added to packages so they show up in the new software centers. There are 319 packages that need metainfo added before a switch can be made.
  • Adding metainfo is a good and simple way to get started with packaging. We have an issue up on our tracker reagrding this effort. If you would like to help, get in touch in the Solus Packaging room on Matrix.

Security updates

  • mbedtls was updated to 2.28.8-14. Includes security fixes for CVE-2024-28960.
