Red Hat’s System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) fast cache for local users is implemented in this Alpha for better performance, pkgconf is available as well as default system pkg-config implementation, systemd-coredump is also enabled by default, and the xorg-x11-drv-synaptics driver has been removed.
