I realize everyone is tired of hearing about AI every other minute, but I wanted to share a small project that I started on the side - an MCP server for Copr. It can create projects, build packages, etc.

It is still in an early stage of development, but I wanted to know what you think.

I have managed to restore the #KDE #Plasma #X11 session on #AlmaLinux 10.1.

I have built some of the @sonicdesktop packages for #EL10 and made them run on @XLibreDev.

Instructions can be found on my #COPR repo here: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/andersrh/sonicDE/

This is not a full build of #SonicDE, but an initial alpha release, which restores the X11 session on an #Wayland only distro. More packages will be released later to create a full SonicDE environment as well as newer versions in order to include the newest enhancements for X11.

@jonathanspw @almalinux Thanks, ok, #copr I was exploring for a broken #FreeCAD build last year, so that might be something for the holiday then. Thanks again.
Just a FYI: If you use Fedora and using Wezterm, the latest version of wezterm from COPR is an empty package due to some buggy spec change; you have to install wezterm-gui and wezterm-mux-server to make it actually installed

there is already an issue created here that you can follow:

4 cool new projects to try in Copr for December 2025 - Fedora Magazine

Try out these new 4 cool projects from Copr repositories. This article showcases apps like the trending launcher Vicinae, and more!

256k packages were downloaded from my #Linux #kernel vanilla #copr repositories[1] for #Fedora Linux 41 during its lifetime, which ends today, as it becomes EOL.

That's ~30k more than for Fedora 39, and 20k less than Fedora 40[2].

[1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Kernel_Vanilla_Repositories

[2] I guess is due to a subpackage being separated and thus not shipped in my coprs anymore

Either someone found the vanilla #linux-next builds fpr #s390x useful, which I enabled a few days ago in my #Fedora Linux #copr[1] – or it was just some AI crawler that made the number in the download stats go up from 0 to 32. 🤷

These days you never know. #moderntimes #kernel #LinuxKernel

Amazing! The #Fedora #COPR is one way to try it, even on #AtomicDesktops like #uBlue

Some things that come to my mind:
- adjustable size
- padding to left/right so it doesnt take up all the screen
- nice show/hide functionality with a button, swiping, dynamically
- functional keys (Ctrl, Alt, Super, Arrows, Fn keys, ...)

Woo! Grateful for the #Fedora #COPR repos! I know installing things from third party repos willy nilly is a bad idea, but I was having trouble figuring out how to install the #wezterm I'd build from source (You can't really set cargo run --bin wezterm as your default Terminal Emulator!) and I was happy to see that I could just dnf install it with desktop integration and all the bells and whistles in place.
