It's Tuesday and it means that a bunch of new features landed to production 🚀
📓 You can newly specify a `commit-message` when syncing your release to #fedora
:fedora: There is a new `packit pull-from-upstream` command in CLI to try the release workflow locally.
🏁 We've improved the retrying mechanism for Bodhi updates so your updates are now created more reliably!
#fedora #packit #automation #weekly #release
My personal take on Kinoite, as staged by the Ublue team, has received a significant update to align it with the latest developments. You'll be using a signed docker container before you know it ;-) Read about it (and try!) at https://github.com/thesaigoneer-kinoite/thesaigoneer-kinoite/blob/live/README.md
today:
* ran the #fedora 39 beta blocker review meeting
* updated the doc anaconda team is using to track what needs to go into the next build
* merged PRs for the desktop backgrounds upstream and did a new f39-backgrounds build with the fixes - https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-dcb2b2bb93
* filed a fesco issue to discuss dropping anaconda webUI for f39 - https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/3066
* wrote a detailed summary of fedfind usage of PDC (again...) - https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/LGH5NQ6ANC5GCVTB3BYMYJENLAJJ7AJ5/
* did some more Change wrangling
Oh, hi, itch to use an #immutable #Fedora desktop. It's been a minute.
I'm not sure if I'm willing to migrate my activity flow to distrobox and flatpak only to be dissatisfied later and want to go back to a mutable desktop.
I don't particularly *need* the benefits of an immutable system.
Next up for testing: Linux Kernel 6.5!
Please support Fedora with testing the latest kernel from *Sep 10-17*.
We also have Toolbx. 🧰 It has been a made a release-blocking deliverable for Fedora, so we really want to iron out bugs so that it doesn't hold up Fedora 39. Test Day for this is *Sep 14*.
Instructions on how to help can be found below: https://fedoramagazine.org/contribute-at-the-fedora-linux-test-week-for-kernel-6-5-and-toolbx-test-day/
How has my experiment to not use RPMFusion been going?
It seems I solved all of my codec problems by just using the Flathub Firefox package. Since they bundle in everything I need, including the codecs, I got no issues playing YouTube videos, which was the main road block I would hit before.
For my use case, I can manage without RPMFusion! Still not great that I have to go to something outside of the Fedora Projects to solve that problem. #Fedora #rpmfusion #linux
Want to be one of those who don't need to create Bodhi updates for their Fedora package?

#Gnome #45 (il Desktop environment per #Linux) viene rilasciato il 20 settembre
Ecco qualche info sulle sue caratteristiche:

La notizia più importante è però che cambia la modalità di gestione delle #extensions e che di conseguenze quelle attuali sono incompatibili alla versione 45
Argh? Argh, almeno per qualche tempo
#gnome #linux #extensions #unolinux #fedora #foss
Setting aside the nearly religious preferences I know exist; what is the practical difference between #GNU #Linux and #Unix #BSD?
I started with Mandrake in 2001 and lost count of which and how many systems distros I’ve used since then. But the stand outs for me have been #Mandrake, #Fedora, #Suse, #OpenDarwin, and #GNUStep. While there were differences between the systems in terms of hardware and software support I have never grokked what differentiates BSD and GNU.
#gnu #linux #unix #bsd #mandrake #fedora #suse #opendarwin #gnustep
I like @elementary and think their work is important, but I‘m at the point I don‘t want to contribute to projects that are not part of #Debian, or maybe even #openSuSE or #Fedora. @debian @opensuse @fedora
Why? If you want to start a project and be fast, you may go alone. But if you want to go far at some point you need to become part of a bigger community.
Voilà, #Librewolf configuré aux petits oignons comme mon #Firefox Nightly, avec les extensions, styles (CSS), et scripts qui vont bien.
Ce sera mon navigateur par défaut désormais.

@stepfister Ich wüsste nichts, was da großartig gegen #Fedora sprechen würde.
Okay, #Fedora #Silverblue #FedoraSilverblue.
I installed it on my children's laptops (both 12yo) and configured the parental controls to deny them the _installation_ of applications. This results in many, many requests for my password on _updates_ of applications (we're talking #flatpak here). According to them, that's highly annoying. I agree. How can I set it up so updates work without additional authentication? 1/3
