CachyOS dropped plasma-login-manager from PKGBUILDS after KDE shipped the fix upstream, while localization work pushed forward with German translations of core features.

The plasma-login-manager package is gone [1], pulling it from the build suite now that KDE's Plasma 6.7.3 resolved the underlying issue upstream. That's cleanup that clears the patch backlog. In parallel, rate-mirrors got a version bump [2] to keep mirror selection tools current. On the documentation front, the wiki team wrapped German translation work on the CachyOS settings feature page [3], one of four major pages in the localization queue. The uptime monitors confirm both China mirrors holding steady: USTC responding in 1810ms and Nanjing in 1650ms [4] [5]. Overall: 33 commits across the stack in the last cycle, mostly automation and maintenance.
