Revision as of 13:03, 28 September 2024

Highlights

Rust 1.81
GNOME 47
KDE Plasma 6.1.5

OpenSSH

Note: TODO: Remove this section if https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/merge_requests/68589 gets merged before 3.21 is released

You need to restart your sshd service!

Since the 9.8_p1 release, openssh-server is now split into two binaries, sshd and sshd-session. With this change sshd needs to be restarted to be able to accept new connections.

Since managing services has always been out-of-scope for apk, we will NOT do the following for you:

rc-service --ifstarted sshd restart

GNOME 47

GNOME 47 made it into Alpine 3.21. Everything should work as expected. Make sure you read the GNOME 47 release notes: https://release.gnome.org/47/

Jellyfin

Jellyfin now uses the recommended fork of ffmpeg called `jellyfin-ffmpeg` by default. If you want to change that, take a look at the `ffmpegpath` variable in `/etc/conf.d/jellyfin`. (!69924)

Bats

"main/bats" was renamed to "main/bats-core". Now there is a meta package "community/bats" which contains:

bats-core
bats-file
bats-support
bats-assert
