today:
* fixed #fedora #openqa container compose test for a required syntax change in the kiwi call
* saw it broke *again* later in the day which sent me and @Conan_Kudo down a fun ISO spec rabbit hole, bodged it for now with pagure.io/fedora-kiwi-descript
* fixed a bug in my compose metadata keep changes and got them merged to all release branches - pagure.io/pungi-fedora/pull-re etc.
* finished mwclient integration test PR, fixed another bug on the way - github.com/mwclient/mwclient/p , github.com/mwclient/mwclient/p

This week's donation was to the Nitrux project. Nitrux is a Linux distro that is based off Debian and uses it's own desktop called NX Desktop which is based off KDE Plasma. It has no package manager and uses App Images instead although you can also use Flatpaks and setup other programs if need be. Nitrux uses OpenRC for it's init system, the Liquorix Kernel, and uses the EXT4 file system. It's a unique distro that is worth a look.




The main website for the project is here:

https://nxos.org/




The source code is avaialble on Github:

https://github.com/Nitrux




The project has a presence on Mastodon:

If you wish to help the project financially they accept donations through Open Collective and Ko-fi:

#Mpox jabs are dangerous and may be deadly for people with VAIDS/AIDS or eczema.

Passive exposure from jabbed people to those at risk may also be sharing the adverse reaction risk. Heart disease and eye conditions are also contraindicated...
