ULS 246: Chasing the Sun - Updates, Frameworks, & Closing the Source

About this episode

The episode discusses recent software updates and developments in the Linux community, including notable releases and changes in open source projects.

There's new releases all around, with Calibre 9.5, Gimp 3.2, Handbrake 1.11, and KeePassXC 2.7.12 all releasing updates. Then Fedora has a RISC-V complaint, the kernel is publishing an API specification, and systemd is adding AI-specific documentation. SUSE may be for sale, and the guys have ideas about who may be interested in purchasing, while TrueNAS makes waves by closing the future source of their system build scripts. For tips, we have "udevadm info" for querying the device database, arch-deckify for turning a machine into a SteamOS experience, and an intro to Bash's ctrl-r search function.
