Released eleven months ago, on July 11, 2017, the Fedora 26 Linux operating system brought the GNOME 3.24 desktop environment, the DNF 2.5 package manager, a brand-new partitioning tool in the Anaconda installer for expert setups, as well as the Python Classroom Lab spin designed for educators and students. Almost 10,000 updated packages were published for the Fedora 26 Linux release during its lifetime, which will end this Friday, June 1, 2018. After this date, Fedora 26 users will no longer receive security patches and bug fixes, nor enhancement updates and new packages to its software repositories.
