Server kernel adopts upstream PREEMPT config as ungoogled-chromium jumps to 156

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

A routine package day across the CachyOS trees: the Fedora COPR server kernel now derives its PREEMPT settings from upstream, the AUR-derived repo tracks a new Chromium major, and a dozen version bumps refresh the rest.

Use upstream CachyOS PREEMPT config for server kernel CachyOS/copr-linux-cachyos

by Mikael Dúi Bolinder

The copr-linux-cachyos server kernel build now pulls its PREEMPT configuration from the upstream CachyOS config rather than carrying its own, which the commit says solves issue #119. Anyone building or tuning the server kernel variant should expect the shipped preemption settings to match upstream CachyOS instead of the previous COPR-specific values.

ungoogled-chromium-bin: update to 156.0.8078.47 CachyOS/cachyos-aur-derived

by github-actions

ungoogled-chromium-bin moves from 155.0.8059.84 to 156.0.8078.47, a new major line, with checksums and .SRCINFO regenerated by pkgctl version upgrade. The automated report flagged makepkg --verifysource as false but detected no risks in its static diff scan.

dms-shell: 2.0.0 CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by Peter Jung

dms-shell lands at 2.0.0 in CachyOS-PKGBUILDS, a major version step for the shell package. The same batch carries rate-mirrors 0.34.0-1, a sync of the java package with Arch Linux, a bump of nginx to latest, and fixes to obs-studio-browser.

mongodb-compass: Update electron version CachyOS/cachyos-aur-derived

by Peter Jung

Peter Jung updated the Electron version used by mongodb-compass, so the Compass build tracks a current Electron rather than whatever the PKGBUILD pinned before. The commit gives no Electron version number, so check the PKGBUILD diff before relying on a specific runtime.

🟥 Russia Mirror (archlinux.gay) is down (0 in 0 ms) [skip ci] [upptime] CachyOS/statuspage

by Cachy uptime-bot

The uptime bot marked the Russia mirror at archlinux.gay down, reporting 0 in 0 ms on the probe. The status summary, README, and graphs were refreshed to match, so Russian users on that mirror will need a fallback in rate-mirrors' list while it stays dark.
