Pengwin 20.7.0 released. See what's new.

Pengwin 20.7.0 has been released, including pengwin-base build 615 and pengwin-setup build 1542.

Pengwin 20.7.0 features:

  • Solves an incompatibility between glibc 2.31 and WSL 1. Pengwin now provides a patched version 2.31-1.wsl. Thank you ChrisTX for the patch: https://gist.github.com/ChrisTX/391fe201b3d72d3b3dac17066100347d

  • Enable unattended installations with pengwin-setup. For example to enable high-dpi write: pengwin-setup --noupdate -y GUI HIDPI

  • Improve High DPI support for GTK, the feature is not experimental anymore and we recommend to use it with Qt and GTK apps with high-resolution displays. 

  • Updated the C++ integration with IDEs to include newer versions of CLion (and other JetBrains IDEs). Just run the C++ option again in pengwin-setup.

  • Fixed the dbus configuration so the FIle Manager in XFCE runs. Run again GUILIB in pengwin-setup

  • Fixed a regression with the MariaDB installation in the LAMP installation.

  • pengwin-setup now installs Python 3.8.3

Existing users can update immediately by running $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y.

Huge thanks to Patrick, all contributors, and issue reporters.
