Here’s the latest from Solus:

  1. Python 3 Ports: Solus has been focused on finalizing the Python 3 ports of eopkg and ypkg. Transitioning users during regular updates can be tricky, but a solution is being tested to ensure a robust transition.

  2. Unicode Support: Work has been done to support multi-character Unicode symbols (such as emoji) in package update commits and changelogs. With the move to Python 3, this is now possible, except for the Software Center, which remains Python 2 until it’s replaced by GNOME Software and KDE Discover. The Software Center will handle these characters differently to avoid breaking the code.

  3. KDE Frameworks and Gear Updates: KDE Frameworks was updated to version 6.1, bringing many bug fixes post-Plasma 6 release. Similarly, KDE Gear has been updated to version 24.02.2, addressing issues like crashes and broken volume sliders.

  4. ROCm 6: AMD’s open-source software stack for GPU computation, ROCm, has been reintroduced as ROCm 6.0 after previous issues with Blender compatibility. With bug fixes and workarounds in place, users can expect better performance and wider device compatibility.

  5. Deprecations: evopop-gtk-theme and qt5-pas have been deprecated. On the other hand, a new addition, fan2go, makes its debut as a daemon to control computer fans.
