As always, make sure to read Upgrading Alpine to a new major release when upgrading to a new release.
If you experience any issues with the upgrade, please let us know and file an issue in our repositories.
Important changes
Significant changes
KDE Plasma
The X11 session for KDE Plasma has been removed. If you had plasma-workspace-x11 installed make sure to remove it from /etc/apk/world. Wayland is the only available option now.
SDL
sdl3 and sdl2-compat were moved to the community repository and are now the default SDL provider. To force the installation of sdl2, use apk add sdl2.
Adwaita Fonts
As a result of GNOME's switch to adwaita-fonts, the default font for GTK-based applications (e.g. vte3 or libadwaita Applications) was changed. If you want to revert or override the fonts, you can use:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Cantarell 11' $ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name 'Source Code Pro 11'
