4.0.1-0
Released 2nd August 2020
Stable Release Candidate 2
I am delighted to announce our second stable channel release candidate. We have had no reports of any show stoppers on 4.0.0-0 and we need to populate the Stable channel very shortly so this is both one of the largest and yet, at the same time smallest releases we can do. The aforementioned intrepid @Flox is solely responsibly for this one and I have resisted the temptation to slip any other changes in myself. That way we can still claim this release to have no intended functional change. Yet it changes significantly, syntactically, almost every single Python file in our entire project:
- Project-wide Black formatting. Fixes #2195 @FroggyFlox
That is it. A massive undertaking that has cleared the way for cleaner pull request going forward that makes not intended change what-so-ever to our existing 4.0.0-0 release. But does serve to test upgrade from our recently released installer maker repo, previously post in this thread, once I’ve fixed that to it’s intended 4.0.0-0 rpm release. But I digress.
So do, as usual, report you findings re this rpm version as we are really hoping to promote this to the Stable Channel very shortly. And begin the much needed and much delayed process of moving to Python 3. A major element in formalising our python formatting as per this version sole focus.
Thanks again to @Flox for their sterling effort in this rather tedious, but necessary task.
So again, thanks for all testing reports, past and hopefully future and to our Stable Channel subscribers who make this entire venture possible. Please do consider subscribing to support our efforts as we enter our next stage of ‘Built on openSUSE’ releases and the inevitable performance and security enhancements that we get, and need, as we transition our entire technical ‘stack’ to something a little more modern on the version front.
Enjoy and on …
