Our team has been hard at work squashing bugs, improving features, and ensuring a smooth and efficient user experience. Here's a rundown of some of the recent changes: + +**Enhanced Security and User Management** + + * **Addressing outdated configuration parameters:** We've removed outdated parameters from the YaST security module to prevent conflicts with `useradd`, `usermod`, and `userdel` commands on newer systems (Factory, Tumbleweed, Slowroll). This ensures compatibility and prevents unexpected errors when managing users ([yast-security](https://github.com/yast/yast-security/pull/160)). + * **Robust blacklist parsing:** Improved the parsing of blacklisted modules in YaST to handle spaces around commas correctly, preventing issues when multiple modules are blacklisted ([pull request](https://github.com/yast/yast-installation/pull/1127)). + +**Improved Installation and Configuration** + + * **iSCSI client enhancements:** The iSCSI client now correctly handles auto-login and service activation during installation, ensuring a smoother setup process for iSCSI-based systems ([pull request](https://github.com/yast/yast-iscsi-client/pull/132)). + * **YaST integration with Plasma 6:** Updated the YaST `.desktop` file location to ensure proper integration with KDE System Settings in Plasma 6, making it easily accessible to users ([pull request](https://github.com/yast/yast-control-center/pull/60)). + +**Website and Documentation Updates** + + * **Fixing anchor link scrolling:** Addressed an issue where headings were hidden behind the floating title bar when using anchor links on the YaST blog. This improvement enhances navigation and readability ([pull request](https://github.com/yast/yast.github.io/pull/372)). You can see the improvement in action by comparing the following screenshots: + * Before: yast_blog_broken + * After: yast_blog_fixed. + * **Improved WSL testing documentation:** We've updated our documentation for testing YaST in the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). This includes information on installing WSL, testing firstboot, creating a testing APPX, and more. You can find the updated documentation here: [https://github.com/yast/yast-firstboot/blob/master/doc/testing_wsl.md] + +**Agama News** + +* **Agama has its own blog!** Keep up with the latest news and developments from the Agama project by visiting their new blog at [https://agama-project.github.io/blog](https://agama-project.github.io/blog). + +**Behind the Scenes** + + * **Moving sources for automatic package submission:** We've moved the sources of container definition for automatic package submission from OBS to GitHub to simplify maintenance and synchronization ([pull request](https://github.com/yast/ci-yast-rake-container/pull/1)). + +**Thank You to Our Contributors!** + +A big thank you to all the contributors who reported issues, submitted patches, and helped us make YaST even better. Your feedback and support are invaluable! + +Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to enhance YaST and provide you with the best possible system administration experience.
