openSUSE Tumbleweed Packs GCC 7 as Default Compiler, Qt 5.9 Is Coming Soon Too

It appears that the Tumbleweed team worked hard in the past few days to enable GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) 7 as default compiler for the GNU/Linux distribution, which kinda decreased the number of snapshots released last month. But now that GCC 7 is in, they’re back pushing new snapshots with the latest updates. As mentioned before, four snapshots have been released for openSUSE Tumbleweed already this month, and it looks like they brought in the recently released KDE Plasma 5.10 desktop environment, along with the KDE Applications 17.04.1 software suite and KDE Frameworks 5.34.0.
