CachyOS's packaging work centered on toolchain and desktop plumbing in CachyOS-PKGBUILDS, while the derived AUR mirror took a routine round of upstream bumps.

llvm/clang: Unified all in one PKGBUILD CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by ptr1337

Peter Jung's change unifies the llvm and clang packaging into a single all-in-one PKGBUILD, which means one build recipe now governs both artifacts instead of keeping them in separate package directories.

Delete plasma-login-manager directory CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by simiscoool-afk

A contributor removed the plasma-login-manager directory from CachyOS-PKGBUILDS outright, so that package path no longer exists in the tree.

pacman: patch for new libcurl auth CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by Vladislav Nepogodin

Vladislav Nepogodin landed a pacman patch to accommodate libcurl's new authentication handling, carried as a patch against the packaged pacman rather than an upstream release.

llvm: Add llvm-bolt CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by Peter Jung

The LLVM build picks up llvm-bolt alongside the unified PKGBUILD, adding BOLT to the toolchain CachyOS packages.

mutter: 51.1 CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by ventureoo

mutter 51.1 is staged in a PR whose description states plainly that it is not tested yet, so it is a candidate rather than a landed update. Elsewhere the tree took routine bumps: brave-bin and brave-origin-bin both to 1.97.59, helium-browser-bin to 0.19.4.1, unciv-bin to 4.22.11, librepods to 1.0.3, and a scx-scheds-git version and tag bump, all with no risk flags from the static diff scan.
