Cachy-Update rebases on Arch-Update 4.4.0, kernel 7.3-rc3-2 lands

By RepoJournal · Filed · About CachyOS · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

CachyOS's update tooling moved to Arch-Update 4.4.0 across both the PKGBUILDs and cachy-update repos, while the kernel rebased to Linux 7.3-rc3 with an added 7.3/cachy branch.

Rebase against Arch-Update v4.4.0 CachyOS/cachy-update

by Antiz96

The rebase pulls CachyOS's fork onto Arch-Update v4.4.0, which the PKGBUILDS side pins in the same window, so the tool and the package it ships from are no longer drifting apart.

CachyOS Linux 7.3-rc3-2 CachyOS/linux

by 1Naim

Released as CachyOS Linux 7.3-rc3-2 on top of Linux 7.3-rc3, adding a 7.3/cachy branch and reverting the drm/gud TV mode name validation plus i915 RC6 and btusb fixes in 7.3/fixes. An -rc kernel, not a stable bump.

chore(build): Add necessary changes to ship a pre-compiled binary for the systray applet and to build without the systray applet CachyOS/cachy-update

by Antiz96

The build now produces a pre-compiled systray applet binary and can be built without the applet at all, which is what enables the arch-update-bin and arch-update-no-tray AUR packages.

fix(tray): Make the SNI status configurable (#789) CachyOS/cachy-update

by Robin Candau

The SNI status is configurable again after the dynamic Passive/Active switching left users with the applet silently hidden post-upgrade. Worth revisiting if you turned the tray applet off after that change.

cachyos-drm-awaiter: Bump new pkgver CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by Vasiliy Stelmachenok

Elsewhere: cachyos-drm-awaiter bumps pkgver and now matches modalias via pattern rather than a fixed string, the way kmod does; cachyos-calamares adds gvfs-mtp to netinstall.yaml dependencies; Cachy-Update reaches v4.4.0 and the status page kept reporting China mirrors up.
