Haiku/haikuports update, KDE's gear 25.08 has been released (last parts were done yesterday), all (or most) updated where possible to KF6/Qt6, some still contain a KF5 + KF6 version due to KIO issues on our side, some new packages got added also (still have some local packages that are not released for the major public). Enjoy!

Announcement and full list for this release:

I wanted to marvel at the bot madness but

GitHub kept timing out while transferring 4MB

and browser kept choking on processing 14MB of resources

all spread out over 222 requests

for an issue thread with what about 25 text comments plus about the same number of logged repo actions?

Lord, but GitHub has so many problems.

A snippet of a github issue, 'Declarative role management'

Two contributors are talking about planning this for 1.28.0, while then "dosubot" closes it out of nowhere many months later, as "not planned"

#Hannover tut endlich aktiv etwas dagegen, dass der #ÖPNV in der Innenstadt nicht ständig von Auto fahrenden Menschen blockiert wird!

Mehr Maßnahmen wie diese sind nötig, un eine Innenstadt wieder zum Erlebnis für alle zu machen. Räume zu schaffen, damit man wieder gern hingeht / gefahren wird.

Ich habe inzwischen eine Aversion gegen "meine" Innenstadt entwickelt, denn sie ist nach wie vor an vielen Stellen eine Gefahrenquelle für zu Fuss gehende Menschen, die flanieren wollen.
Zudem gibt es viel zu wenig Platz zum Ausruhen und es ist der falsche Ort, wenn es heiß ist.

➤ 邁向更安全的嵌入式系統:讓 Wayland Client 擺脫 Root 束縛
embeddeduse.com/2025/08/11/run
本文探討如何在嵌入式 Linux 系統中,讓 Wayland Client (例如 Qt 應用程式) 以非 Root 使用者身分執行,以符合資安原則和歐盟的《網路韌性法案》(EU CRA)。作者詳細說明瞭 Wayland 通訊的機制,特別是 socket 檔案的權限問題,並提出透過修改 Weston 的啟動參數、設定使用者與羣組的靜態 ID,以及統一配置 Wayland socket 的名稱來解決此問題。最終目標是將相關的設定集中管理,確保系統的安全與穩定。

Burkhard Stubert · Running Wayland Clients as Non-Root UsersMany embedded Linux systems use a Wayland compositor like Weston for window management. Qt applications act as Wayland clients. Weston composes the windows of the Qt applications into a single wind…

BTFW

A hearty "may this email find you with wet socks and ill-fitting underwear" to every teacher, manager, and designated authority who had me convinced my problem was that I wasn't working hard enough.

No it damn well wasn't.

Finally being allowed to patiently observe, evaluate, and apply changes needed when I see they're needed—not pushed by someone with their own timeline and no insight.

*three weeks* (two, technically) and we are kicking ass.
