We are planning to update apk-tools to 3.0 in edge repository on July 1, 2025.

We are keeping the apk 2 index and package formats for now, so everything *should* just work, but scripts parsing the output of apk may need to be adjusted.

#AlpineLinux

Making music with code in real time, fancy rsync, an open source real time strategy engine, advanced print debugging, EU-based DNS resolvers, and European government departments moving away from Microsoft and they might stick with Linux and FOSS this time.

thanks everyone who helped make the new #postmarketOS release! they just get better and better every time.

i continue to be more and more hopeful that we will deliver on our mission to build a production ready OS, made by and for the community that continue to contribute (whether through code, reports, debugging, or donations).

we are not stopping with systemd... next up will be factory reset support, update rollbacks, EFI on qualcomm phones, immutability, and huge tooling improvements

embedded edition is also on my mind, we need better ways to build and maintain embedded systems and we absolutely have the raw ingredients

Ooh, this looks like a big #postmarketOS update!

(And perhaps some camera improvements too.)

* Camera for OP6/6T and others 📸
* #GNOME 48 + 48.mobile.0
* #PlasmaMobile 6.3.5
* #Phosh 0.47.0 with Stevia now installed by default
* #Sxmo 1.17.1 (again, but this time with a systemd preview too!)

Thanks to all the amazing people who contributed to this release!  

Thanks to @nlnet and @NGIZero for funding most of the infrastructure and maintenance work that went into this release as well as a lot of the systemd related work.

Hello!

30 trillion cells in my body are human, whatever that means, and 38 trillion are various bacteria! There are a bunch of viruses too which are currently impacting my functionality!

I am 68 trillion microorganisms in a trench coat which results in a sort of self-propelling, self-replicating digestion tube, but I am paid to act as if I am a clean, rational, thinking machine!

This is very stressful for all 68 trillion of us, so sometimes we complain about it on the internet.
