Fish 4.4.0 released

Software 44078 Published 2026-02-03 07:54 by Philipp Esselbach 0

The latest version of Fish Shell, 4.4.0, has brought several useful tweaks to everyday use. Key upgrades include Vi-mode word motions that now behave like Vim, with improvements such as treating underscores as separators and allowing counts in operator mode. Other notable changes include new "catppuccin-*" color themes, an improved "bind" builtin for listing mappings from all modes, and cleaner autosuggestions that suppress line-wise suggestions without starting a command. While some features feel unnecessary, such as the strikethrough modifier for set_color, the overall update makes daily use feel smoother with its Vi-mode improvements and cleaner interface.

ML4W OS 2.10.0 released

Software 44078 Published 2026-02-02 16:52 by Philipp Esselbach 0

ML4W OS 2.10.0, the latest Hyprland‑based dotfiles collection rebranded from “ML4W Dotfiles”, now ships a beta live ISO that boots directly into Hyprland with wallpaper‑derived adaptive material colors, adds a calendar app, improves btop’s theme support, and stabilises the Welcome and Settings apps. The ISO is an Arch base configured for systemd‑boot, so you should write it to a UEFI bootable USB; installing on Arch requires running sudo install-ml4w-os from the live session, while other distros can copy dotfiles via the Flathub Dotfiles Installer but still need to resolve dependencies manually.

Additionally, Gear Lever now correctly handles pre‑release GitHub update URLs, pulling the latest “nightly” or “beta” builds without error.

Barman 3.17 released

Software 44078 Published 2026-02-02 09:51 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Barman 3.17, a disaster recovery solution for PostgreSQL, introduces several practical improvements that make remote backups easier, such as allowing commands like list‑backup and get‑wal to run against servers marked inactive so you can query or restore without re‑enabling a node. It also adds safety for S3 Object Lock by aborting deletes when locked objects exist and lets users specify non‑standard SSH ports during restores with a single flag. The release drops the old custom_compression filter, urging teams to switch to built‑in algorithms like gzip, lz4, or zstd for faster, supported compression.

Linux Kernel 6.19-rc8 released

Linux 3298 Published 2026-02-02 07:43 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Linus Torvalds released the eighth release candidate for Linux 6.19, a quiet update that adds only minor driver tweaks and a handful of bug fixes but no new features. The changes include removing a duplicate ice driver, tightening up mlx5e and other networking subsystems to avoid race conditions or memory leaks, and improving the reliability of a self‑test on older hardware. Users with Wi‑Fi, AMDGPU GPUs or heavy networking workloads may notice fixes for kernel panics from rapid power toggles, more robust wptr reset logic, and reduced memory leakage under load; testing involves checking dmesg logs after booting the new kernel.

VSCodium 1.108.20787 released

Software 44078 Published 2026-02-02 07:31 by Philipp Esselbach 0

VSCodium 1.108.20787 adds most of the same features as VS Code 1.108.2 but without the telemetry tracking. The key changes include Cloud Agent support in Azure Shell so partner agents no longer disappear, and a macOS resume fix that clears a flicker by resetting the compositor when the app becomes active again. Upgrading is simple: Linux users can add the repo and run apt install codium, Windows users download the signed installer and run it as administrator, while macOS users update via Homebrew cask or overwrite the .app in /Applications. If you’re already on VSCodium this polish round is painless, but if you stay with VS Code there’s no urgent need to switch unless you want a telemetry‑free experience.

Several Debian LTS advisories were released covering vulnerabilities in the web application firewall ModSecurity, the ASN.1 library pyasn1, and the asynchronous web framework Tornado. The modsecurity‑apache update addresses CVE-2025-54571 by preventing attackers from overriding HTTP response Content-Type headers, while the pyasn1 updates fix a denial‑of‑service flaw that can exhaust memory when parsing malformed OID/RELATIVE-OID values (CVE-2026-23490). The python-tornado advisories cover three CVEs, CVE-2025-67724, CVE-2025-67725, and CVE-2025-67726, which expose issues such as XSS, header injection, and quadratic performance attacks that can lead to denial of service. All affected packages have been upgraded to patched versions, and users are urged to install the latest releases promptly.
