Repository Update: 4th September 2025

[NomadicCore]

Kicking off September, we have our first weekly sync to our repository. Moving forward, we are looking to weekly sync's to the repo to provide our users with a bit more predicability of when updates are likely to land. We are still deciding which day of the week to sync and will provide updates in due course.

Cosmic: Updated to the latest release tags of Cosmic Alpha 7 as at 30th August from Pop-os repo-release repository. This provides roughly 4 months worth of updates to our Cosmic session with improvements across the board.

KDE Plasma: Further fix up's and continued packaging as we develop KDE Plasma into a more mature offering on AerynOS.

Steam: We fixed an issue with native games crashing. CS2 was reported as not working but this should now be fixed.

Other package updates include:

• Linux kernel: Update to 6.15.11 (edit 6.16.5 landed in the volatile repo just after sync, it will land in the next repo sync)
• Nvidia Graphics Driver: Update to 570.181
• Mesa: Update to 25.2.2
• Systemd: Update to 257.9
• Unrar: Update to 7.1.10
• Jujutsu: Update to 0.33.0
• aom: Update to 3.13.0
• Discord: Update to 0.0.108
• Rclone: Add at 1.71.0
• Chafa: Added at 1.16.2
• Libvirt: Update to 11.7.0
• Wireplumber: Update to 0.5.11

You can check out other progress in our recipes repo commit history.

For packagers, we have also landed an update to boulder where it will try to identify the licence of a package when using the "boulder new" command. This is a nice usability improvement as we work towards making packaging as automated and pain free as possible.
