Repository Update: 29th October 2025

This sync was dominated by KDE Plasma 6.5, the switching away from the LLVM libc++ to the GNU libstdc++ (which fixed a few bugs and helped us drop a few patches), and the resulting 500+ rebuilds.

No ETA can be provided but glad to see progress being made.

We now have a working appstream catalogue with data hosted at appstream.aerynos.dev

Appstream is a cross-distribution collaboration effort to unify software metadata so it can be handled by Software Centres in a standardised way.

Alright, granted, this is a little ugly looking, but *does* demonstrate the functioning multiprocess separation for the imminently upcoming lichen-installer overhaul. Next up, "do the roar". Er, wipe the disk/install, that is.

Our rebootstrap is almost complete, with the merged llvm project packages now in, polly fixes landing, and the transition path from x86_64-serpent-linux -> x86_64-aerynos-linux in place. Likely first sync this evening or early morning. :)

Now we're cookin'. Toolchain updates coming over the weekend while we reseed the infra, update core toolchain packages, and swap the host triplet from x86_64-serpent-linux to x86_64-aerynos-linux

This will come through in a couple of days as an entirely boring, uneventful update

Shiny updates this morning include Firefox 136.0.4 and Linux 6.13.9. The 6.14 series will be coming but will need testing before we push it.

Some may be struggling to install the alphas, given we're still shipping the *old* installer (new is WIP).

An ESP must exist on a GPT disk for lichen to offer it. Better again, use an XBOOTLDR (`bls_boot`) FAT32 partition if ESP is tiny. We'll use it. Also, *net* installer.. :)
