2017-09-11 - Kernels, KDE Framework, Mesa, Removal of OpenRC (Testing Update)
Verfasst: Montag 11. September 2017, 11:53
Hi community,
another week, another update to our testing branch. We updated Mesa to v17.2 series, which includes new drivers and other goodies, updated some of our kernels, added latest KDE Frameworks v5.38 plus having GCC v7.2 as our latest compiler. If you have difficulties to update, please install additional multilib packages of gcc first, so a full upgrade is possible.
With this update, however, we also removed the support of OpenRC. For all users who had used that init-system we recommend to either convert back to systemd or try the new project Artix Linux, which is focused on OpenRC only and is also based on Arch Linux. They already have great migration documentations.
Please test and give us feedback as usual
