Hello development folks,
on the given occasion, I'd like to share my thoughts regarding Core Update 171.
Currently, it contains a new toolchain, updated Perl (thanks again, Adolf!), as
well as updated linux-firmware, some bug fixes and package updates. The Core
Update itself currently has 39 MBytes in size.
Unless someone objects, I would like to squeeze a kernel into Core Update 171,
since the one we released in 170 contains a bug rendering apparently popular
ASIX USB3-to-LAN adapters unusable, which affects several users (none of them
tested, of course :-/ ).
Aside from that, there are a few bugs I'd like to see fixed before releasing
Core Update 171, such as repairing the creation of full ISO backups (no Bugzilla
ID assigned yet, AFAIK), as well as me finally fixing #12489.
To release a testing version of C171 more timely, I propose to close the update
in roughly a week, on September 25.
As always, comments/critics/thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks, and best regards,
Peter Müller
