The Fedora Linux development team has announced that Fedora Linux 43 Final RC 1.6 will be released as the final version on October 28, 2025.

The Fedora Project will be hosting test days for Linux Kernel 6.17 and Fedora Linux 42 from October 12 to October 18, 2025. Participants will have access to experienced developers and quality assurance engineers who can assist with testing, bug fixes, and general conversation. To participate in the test day, users must have a virtual machine or bare metal machine running Fedora 42, which they should update completely before starting tests. After setting up their test environment by installing and configuring Koji, users can proceed with testing using pre-installed instructions on systems running the test day image.
