AlmaLinux 10.1 released

Linux Weekly News - Mon, 11/24/2025 - 15:18

AlmaLinux 10.1 has been released. In addition to providing binary compatibility with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 10.1, the most notable feature in AlmaLinux 10.1 is the addition of support for Btrfs, which is not available in RHEL:

Btrfs support encompasses both kernel and userspace enablement, and it is now possible to install AlmaLinux OS on a Btrfs filesystem from the very beginning. Initial enablement was scoped to the installer and storage management stack, and broader support within the AlmaLinux software collection for Btrfs features is forthcoming.

In addition to Btrfs support, AlmaLinux OS 10.1 includes numerous other improvements to serve our community. We have continued to extend hardware support both by adding drivers and by adding a secondary version of AlmaLinux OS and EPEL to extend support of x86_64_v2 processors.

See the release notes for a full list of changes.

[$] APT Rust requirement raises questions

Linux Weekly News - Mon, 11/24/2025 - 11:26

It is rarely newsworthy when a project or package picks up a new dependency. However, changes in a core tool like Debian's Advanced Package Tool (APT) can have far-reaching effects. For example, Julian Andres Klode's declaration that APT would require Rust in May 2026 means that a few of Debian's unofficial ports must either acquire a working Rust toolchain or depend on an old version of APT. This has raised several questions within the project, particularly about the ability of a single maintainer to make changes that have widespread impact.
