Highlights
- Fixes for two security bugs
- Fedora 41 is being prepared for R4.3
- Many fixes which were tested on r4.3 are coming to r4.2
- I3 Desktop Manager support is renewed
Details
In addition to the usual minor fixes and improvements
- desktop-linux-i3-settings-qubes v1.11-1 (r4.3)
qubes-i3-status which is a part of Qubes OS tools for i3 desktop manager is rewritten in Python (was bash), fixing a bug. - desktop-linux-manager v4.2.25 (r4.2)
Most of this fixes were reported before in previous versions of this newsletter.
Qubes Devices widget will label new devices as βNewβ for 10 minutes on 1st view. Then for up to 2 minutes on subsequent views. This is a functionality and security enhancement as it will help users to identify the correct device (if there are two with similar device names).
Qubes Update GUI will show the refresh phase of dom0 update in the progress area.
Policy Editor will look better on smaller displays with lower resolution (1366x768). - linux-kernel-latest v6.10.3-1-latest & v6.6.42-1 (r4.2 & 4.3)
Linux kernel weekly updates. As usual, you will find the details via Greg Kroah-Hartman announcements on lwn.net.
Notable Qubes OS specific detail is that the new kernels are being tested on Fedora 41 (probably will be used for R4.3 dom0 & Fedora TemplateVM). - vmm-xen v4.17.4-5 (r4.2)
This was discussed before (week 29). - libwnck3 v43.0-9 (r4.2 & r4.3)
One of the security fixes for QSB-104: GUI-related security bugs (the icon color). - gui-agent-linux v4.2.17 (r41, r4.2 & r4.3)
The other of the security fixes for QSB-104 (unexpected key press)
Epilogue
I finally updated the test machine to R4.3 (development stream) to follow the new changes more closely. It was really easy and painless. Details and more insights (from core team members) here.
