Solus upgrades key packages |
 |
The Solus project published a newsletter this week which laid out several important changes and upgrades coming to the distribution. Among the key changes are an upgrade of the GNOME desktop to version 3.26.1, getting the Control Centre to better integrate with the rest of the distribution. Behind the scenes, the LLVM compiler has been upgraded to version 5.0.0. Several changes have been applied to the Seam gaming portal too: "Linux Steam Integration has seen 3 releases this week and features a new "liblsi-intercept", which controls the dynamic linking for Steam binaries, resolving some long-standing issues such as crashes on start, broken full screen views, and ensures that the Steam client uses OS-provided libraries. liblsi-intercept also provides a whitelist to allow Steam to continue to load its own private libraries and our intercept behavior is controlled on a process-name basis. What does this mean? Well it means the Steam client is now using more system libraries, such as SDL, which fixes crashes as well as full screen issues when watching a game trailer in the store." |
