  1. Microsoft announces official availability of .NET 10.0 for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS!

    Microsoft has announced that .NET 10.0 is now available globally for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS users! This version of .NET brings improved performance and new features, as well as other enhancements across different areas of the framework.

    .NET is one of the officially supported development toolchains thanks to Microsoft and Canonical partnering together to ensure that .NET is available and easily installable in Ubuntu. This ensures that .NET works properly across multiple Ubuntu versions.

    Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon has also seen many changes besides the availability of .NET 10.0, including the usage of Linux 7.0 as the kernel to add support for new hardware and to enhance your computer’s performance and reliability. Besides, .NET 10.0 introduced post-quantum cryptography.

    To install .NET 10.0 SDK on your Ubuntu 26.04 LTS installation, follow these steps:

     $ sudo apt update  $ sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-10.0 

    Similarly, to install the runtime on your installation, follow these steps:

     $ sudo apt update  $ sudo apt install dotnet-runtime-10.0 

    However, to install .NET 10.0 SDK with Native AOT support, you’ll have to install the following packages:

     $ sudo apt update  $ sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-aot-10.0 clang

  8. Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon is now available!

    Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon is now available for users! This succeeds the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Noble Numbat, which was a previous long-term support version of Ubuntu that provides 15 years of total support, with 5 years of mainstream support for bug fixes and other improvements.

    Since Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, more improvements have been made to the Ubuntu desktop experience to make your productivity more streamlined than before. With the introduction of GNOME 50, the desktop has seen many enhancements, such as better fractional scaling that minimizes blurring, monospace font size reduction to match the standard UI font, and a brand new system performance utility that lets you discover performance issues.

    According to the official changelogs for LTS users, Ubuntu 26.04 has incorporated several new applications, including, but not limited to:

    • Papers document viewer: The new document viewer replaces Evince that is actually a fork of Evince that uses GTK4 and partial usage of Rust for both memory safety and performance improvements.
    • Loupe image viewer: The new image viewer replaces Eye of GNOME to use the new Glycin library written in Rust for faster and more secure image viewing.
    • Ptyxis terminal emulator: The new terminal emulator replaces the older GNOME Terminal to ensure that more polished look matches the aesthetics of the Ubuntu desktop. Also, it supports directly running containers through podman, toolbox, and distrobox.
    • Resources system monitor: The new system monitor app replaces System Monitor and Power Statistics to monitor the utilization of system resources more effortlessly.

    Alongside the new applications, Ubuntu has also seen more improvements across different areas of the desktop, such as exclusivity to Wayland. In case you’re not a fan of Wayland, Ubuntu flavors still exist, such as Xubuntu.

    The App Center has seen many improvements since the last LTS release, including installs in progress, third-part deb installation, and direct uninstall of snaps from the app manager. Additionally, Security Center has been added to check your computer’s security.

    As for users who are using ARM64 systems, initial hardware enablement work is conducted with the Snapdragon X Elite platform that is included in the desktop ISO, along with a generic ARM64 ISOs targeting virtual machines, ACPI + EFI platforms, and Snapdragon-based Windows-on-ARM (WoA) devices.

    If you are frustrated with the way the software updater notifies you that updates are available by opening windows, the software updater has been reworked to give you an actual notification if there are available updates. An icon in the system tray will remind you that there are available updates, even though the notification has been dismissed.

    The following frameworks have been updated, including, but not limited to:

    • OpenSSH 1:10.2p1
    • ClamAV v1.4.3
    • Django v5.2
    • PHP v8.5
    • Dovecot v2.4.2
    • Postfix v3.10.0
    • Samba v4.23
    • Squid v7.2
    • SSSD v2.12
    • MySQL v8.4.8
    • PostgreSQL v18
    • Valkey v9.0.3

    Finally, .NET 10.0 is included with the release of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, which allows developers and users to build and run applications that are built with .NET 10.0 to allow access to the latest features and improvements that were done in this new LTS version of .NET. Canonical has also introduced a new way to install .NET using snaps instead of a regular APT, starting with .NET 10.0.

    For developers, the following toolchains, apart from .NET, have been released:

    • GCC v15.2, binutils v2.45, glibc v2.42
    • Python v3.13.9 and v3.14
    • LLVM v21
    • Rust v1.91, v1.92, v1.93
    • Golang v1.25
    • Zig v0.14.1
    • OpenJDK v8, v11, v17, v21, v25, v26 preview, v27 preview

    To upgrade your system to 26.04 LTS, either open the terminal and run sudo do-release-upgrade, or open Software Updates and start the upgrade. Make sure that your packages are upgraded first.

    To download this awesome release, check out the following links:

  9. Ghostty is now available on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon

    Ghostty is a terminal emulator that uses your graphics card to achieve high performance, while focusing on being feature-rich and providing native user interface, and is written in Zig.

    One day before Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon gets released, Ghostty has been added to the official Ubuntu repositories for this release under the universe pocket, with the note that ptyxis would still be the default terminal emulator and that the availability of Ghostty would be available as a preview.

    The official announcement made by Canonical states that Ghostty can be installed to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Noble Numbat as follows:

     sudo apt install ghostty 

    The above command will install Ghostty v1.3.0, and it contains new feature additions and improvements since Ghostty went v1.0. Currently, Zig v0.15 is used to build Ghostty, and the terminal emulator is available for Ubuntu systems on 64-bit processors, with amd64 and arm64 being the supported architectures.

    You’ll need a graphics card that supports OpenGL v4.3 or later in order for Ghostty to work. If you have a graphics card that doesn’t meet this requirement, you’ll have to either find another terminal emulator or launch Ghostty with software rendering, with:

     LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true ghostty 

    The Ghostty library, libghostty, is currently not available as a system-wide library, but a future package update will include it.

  10. .NET 8.0 LTS is not installable on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon

    During development of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon, which is expected to come with .NET 10.0 LTS that was released last week, there was a proposal to remove .NET 8.0 from the list of installable software in both the runtime and the SDK forms. This was made in accordance with the comment in a 2023 .NET 6.0 bug that stated:

    - We will ship the latest .NET LTS (e.g. .NET 6, 8, 10) to the latest Ubuntu LTS and backport to the -1 Ubuntu LTS and Interim releases.- We will ship .NET STS releases (.NET 7, 9, 11) only to Ubuntu Interim releases.e.g.- .NET 8 LTS will be on 22.04 LTS, 23.10 and 24.04 LTS- .NET 9 STS will be on 24.10, 25.04, 25.10- .NET 10 LTS will be on 24.04 LTS, 25.04, 25.10 and 26.04 LTS

    As .NET 10.0 is a long-term release that will make its way to Ubuntu 26.04 Resolute Raccoon, it has been backported to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, which is the current LTS version that is supported as of the time of writing. Meanwhile, .NET 8.0 has already been backported to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Jammy Jellyfish, and there is no mention of forward-porting the version to the next Ubuntu LTS version.

    To satisfy this condition, all packages that are related to .NET 8.0 have been removed from Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon. You can take a look at this bug’s logs here.

    Check out the bug report

    Starting from today, you’ll no longer be able to install .NET 8.0 from your development system from official Ubuntu repositories if you’re running the development branch of Resolute Raccoon. You’ll either have to upgrade your applications to .NET 10.0, or you’ll have to manually install .NET 8.0.

    Meanwhile, the team is running into issues with packaging the final version of .NET 10.0 for the same version of Ubuntu, but those issues should be fixed soon so that developers can finally have access to the latest .NET version.

    As a consequence, we had to remove all Nitrocid and BassBoom packages for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon until all packages that are related to .NET 10.0 have landed.

  17. #Greenpeace Stands Up Against #SLAPPs And Wins

    By Joe Mullin
    April 26, 2023

    "The U.S. litigation system is meant to resolve serious disputes. Unfortunately, the high cost of litigation can be weaponized as a means of #harassment and #censorship. That’s become all too common, and the last few decades have seen the rise of what’s known as a #StrategicLawsuitAgainstPublicParticipation, or #SLAPP.

    "At #EFF, as more speech of all types has moved online, we’ve seen SLAPPs proliferate over #DigitalSpeech. SLAPPs get filed against #protesters who oppose #OilPipelines, and regular people doing everyday things like sending #emails to local officials, or even posting an online review.

    "Five years ago, together with Greenpeace and other environmental nonprofits, EFF helped create the #ProtectTheProtest coalition, or #PTP. It’s a group of nonprofits that supports its members and others in their fights against SLAPP lawsuits.

    "One of the lawsuits that spurred the formation of PTP was #ResoluteForestryProducts v. Greenpeace. In this case, a #logging company claimed that Greenpeace’s advocacy for #CanadianForests amounted to a 'global #fraud' that should be punished under civil #RICO laws—U.S. federal laws that were originally intended to go after organized crime.

    "Following a summary judgment hearing last week, the Resolute v. Greenpeace case has finally been put to rest, with a complete victory for Greenpeace. This baseless lawsuit, which lasted seven years, should never have been brought in the first place. We hope Greenpeace’s victory against #Resolute sends a strong message to corporate SLAPP plaintiffs—you won’t win, and your targets won’t stay silent."
