Changes
This set of unstable updates was dominated by 4 kernel updates arriving hot on the heels of each other due to security-related disclosures. Hence, our kernel version went from 7.0.7 to 7.0.10 in just two weeks.
In addition, Reilly landed Qt6 6.11.1, and KDE Plasma 6.6.5 along with associated rebuilds.
On the graphics side, the Vulkan stack was updated to 1.4.350, and Mesa was bumped to 26.1.1.
We also landed Heroic Game Launcher at v2.22.0, and the Ludusavi PC Game saves backup tool at v0.31.0.
Finally, COSMIC DE was updated to v1.0.13 and Firefox v151.0 was landed in our repo.
And as if that wasn’t enough, our group of package contributors is steadily growing (along with their contributions) which is great to see!
