Gear Lever 4.4.6 has arrived with several polish upgrades that make the AppImage manager feel more like a finished tool, including Arabic localization and improved offline handling. The update also trims unnecessary content-type checks that used to slow down launches, resulting in smoother daily use, especially for users juggling dozens of portable apps. A major win is the "single click" menu integration, which allows users to drop a fresh AppImage into their collection and have it appear alongside other applications without needing to open a terminal. The update also includes small UI improvements, such as more consistent button spacing, and better offline support that caches the index of known AppImages locally.

Krita has released beta versions of 5.3 and 6.0, fixing fourteen bugs submitted by testers. The updates bring polish tweaks to daily users, including improved brush engine behavior and smoother animation docker navigation.

Additionally, the launcher now prevents duplicate launch processes from occurring when multiple clicks are made on the Play button, reducing potential troubleshooting time. The update also includes minor fixes and polish, such as improved text wrapping for CJK fonts, but some changes feel like housekeeping rather than significant improvements.

A security notice was issued for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS due to vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. These issues, which affect the cryptographic API, SMB network file system, and io_uring subsystem, could potentially be exploited by an attacker to compromise a system. To fix these problems, users need to update their systems to specific package versions, including linux-image-6.8.0-1022-xilinx and linux-image-6.8.0-94-lowlatency. After updating, it's essential to reboot the computer and possibly reinstall third-party kernel modules due to an ABI change.
