Released last week: CentOS, FreeBSD 11.4, Emmabuntus DE3-1.02.Questions and answers: BSD versus Linux distribution development.
#Nomacs disable welcome window update#
Plus we are pleased to welcome Rescuezilla, a fork of Redo Backup & Rescue, to our database.
Then we talk about how the BSDs vary in their approach to operating system development compared to Linux distributions and how some flavours of Linux are now taking a similar approach. We also share a notice for Tumbleweed users about a potential wireless issue in the latest kernel. In our News section we discuss Fedora making the upgrade process between versions safer and we talk about DragonFly BSD gaining automatic filesystem snapshots. Devuan is one of a few Linux distributions which attempt to support multiple init implementations and we would like to hear what you think of projects offering different init systems in our Opinion Poll. Read on to hear how the latest version of Devuan performs.
This week we begin with a look at Devuan GNU+Linux, a project which takes Debian and strips out the systemd software in favour of alternative init software and other low-level tools. Often developers want to add features or customize settings to make a distribution function better and this allows for a great deal of diversity in the Linux ecosystem. One of the great strengths of open source software is the ability to take one project's code and modify it, making it into something different. Welcome to this year's 25th issue of DistroWatch Weekly!
