The Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee "FESCo" has signed off on the latest batch of Fedora 44 change proposals as they work toward nearing the end of feature work for this spring update to Fedora Linux. Plus some early changes for Fedora 45 have also been granted.
Highlights of this week's FESCo activity for Fedora Linux include:
- Bumping the minimum Rust Bindgen version to v0.72.
- Dropping the LibreOffice KDE Frameworks 5 sub-package for Qt5 integration, considering that Fedora has been on Qt6 for several releases.
- For Fedora 45, updating to the Lua 5.5 interpreter
- Updating to the Taglib 2 series from Taglib 1.
- Switching PackageKit to the new DNF5 back-end built around the libdnf5 codebase.
- Fedora Containers to more closely align their labels with the OpenContainers Annotations spec.
- For Fedora 45, switching to build the Fedora Atomic Desktop ISOs from lorax to image-builder.
- Switching the distribution default version of MariaDB from MariaDB 10.11 to MariaDB 11.8.
- Upgrading from the Django 5 stack to Django 6 on Fedora.
- Upgrading the available rust-coreutils from the aging Rust Coreutils 0.0.27 to the 0.5 series. Also updating the Rust-no package too. This is NOT about making Rust Coreutils by default on Fedora.
- Replacing the nw-shell with the Dank Material Shell for the Fedora MiracleWM spin. The QuickShell-based Dank Material Shell will be the default shell for new installs of Fedora MiracleWM. Those unfamiliar with the Dank Shell can find out more via [1]DankLinux.com .
