openSUSE Tumbleweed Linux Is Now Entirely Built Using GCC 6 as Compiler

Not only has GCC 6 been enabled, but users are also getting the entire KDE Applications 16.04.2 software suite for their KDE Plasma 5.6 desktop environments, and, of course, many other goodies, such as Wireshark 2.0.4, Xen 4.7, Wine 1.9.12, GraphicsMagick 1.3.24, and more. That being said, openSUSE Tumbleweed has been successfully moved to GCC 6, and it looks like there are many other new GNU/Linux technologies incoming, such as Qt 5.6.1 with various important bug fixes, KDE Framework 5.23.0, TeXLive 2016, and last but not least, Git 2.9.0.
