It has been a rather quiet month, mostly dedicated to fixing -some small bugs and working on some features. - -#+TOC: headlines 1 local - -** Fossil support and new repository backend -:PROPERTIES: -:CUSTOM_ID: fossil-support -:END: - -In the [[file:20210415.org::#fossil][previous news post]] I mentioned adding fossil support to the package -manager. Fossil support is now merged to the trunk branch of the package -manager, and I have completely rewritten the repository backend which has -better performance and is easier to extend. There are still some changes to -make, but the feature will be added in the =6.1.0= release. - -** Moving IRC channel -:PROPERTIES: -:CUSTOM_ID: moving-irc-channel -:END: - -After the recent controversies surrounding Freenode, we have also switched to -the new Libera IRC network. Since our previous logger =globbot= is also shutting -down, I have set up an IRC logger powered by [[https://git.causal.agency/litterbox][litterbox]]. The IRC logs can be -found on [[https://irclogs.carbslinux.org]]. The website includes both a searchable -web interface, and plaintext dumps of daily logs. Even though the channel is -low-volume, I think logging it is extremely important. - -** New i686 release -:PROPERTIES: -:CUSTOM_ID: new-i686-release -:END: - -I have decided to make an i686 release last week because it was really outdated, -but it will likely be the last one depending on its use on the few following -months. If you are interested in keeping support for the architecture, feel free -to join the IRC channel to let me know. Maintaining i686 isn't really much of a -burdon on me, but there is no point in maintaining an architecture that isn't -used by anyone. - -Compared to the last month, there aren't much news, and there have been other -things that I needed to attend to. I started writing this post on the 13th, and -only had the time to finish it now! - -See you on the next post! |
