It has been '0' days since I found an incompatibility in Ubuntu 26.04 Rust coreutils: 'stty tabs'. Also, the uutils stty manpage is absolutely ass in 26.04.

This is my face that Ubuntu 26.04's packaging of util-linux has omitted /usr/bin/mesg. What? Why?

(well technically this is the slightly pre-beta 26.04 packages...)

As incredible as it seems, it appears that the Ubuntu 26.04 daily builds, very shortly before the beta release, cannot boot from a mirrored RAID root disk setup (either UEFI or MBR booting).

This is my face, again.

@cks I gave up on Ubuntu a long time ago. Join us on Fedora or Arch.

@purpleidea Fedora and Arch turn over too fast for work machines. Upgrading more often than every year (for Fedora, realistically) is too fast a pace for both us and the people using our systems.

(I have run Fedora for a very long time and I find upgrades irksome enough that (coughs awkwardly) my machines are still F42, even though my runway is running out fast.)
