openSUSE Project’s Douglas DeMaio informs the Tumbleweed community that they can now install the recently released KDE Plasma 5.11 and GNOME 3.26.1 desktop environments on their computers powered by OpenSuSE Tumbleweed Linux. To perform an update, you can use the default graphical package manager. During this week, a total of six snapshots have been released for openSUSE Tumbleweed users, bringing many goodies, starting with the Linux 4.13.5 kernel and Mesa 17.2.2 graphics stack, and continuing with ImageMagick 7.0.7.6 and Apache 2.4.28. CMake 3.9.4 landed as well to bring support for Boost 1.65.0 and 1.65.1.
