openSUSE and Tracking 4.1 Development

Sunday, 10 February 2008  |  beineri

First two mentions from an exciting openSUSE week: the new openSUSE evan..uhm community manager has been finally disclosed, it's Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier. And openSUSE 11.0 Alpha 2 has been released with which we put KDE 4.0 to the test as default desktop. To keep up with openSUSE happenings occasionally I recommend openSUSE Weekly News btw...

As previously said openSUSE will, besides providing packages for the KDE 4.0 branch, continue to track the KDE trunk/4.1 development with packages for openSUSE 10.3 and Factory. This happens in the new KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:* Build Service repositories. The packages don't have all of our distro-specific patches though. Don't mix these repositories with the :STABLE: editions! A new KDE Four Live CD version including our current KDE 4.0.61 snapshot and KOffice 1.9.95.3 packages has just been uploaded. This CD should now also work with KVM (4.0.1 CD xdelta patch for KVM). :-)
