[manjaro-general] Sixth Update-Pack for Manjaro 0.8.8 available

[Manjaro Linux | Manjaro Linux: philm]

[![system_software_update][1]][2]We are happy to announce our sixth update-pack for Manjaro 0.8.8.

This time we updated our Xorg-Stack against **Xorg-Server 1.15**. Therefore we have to use Xorg-Server 1.12 also for our latest Catalyst driver 13.12. All Nvidia drivers are working fine with this new Xorg-Server. All free drivers benefit from these newer packages.  
**  
KDE 4.12** got it's first point release and we are happy to welcome **MATE 1.6** to our official binary repositories. The well known 3rd-party repository is not needed anymore, so please remove it from your pacman.conf file.

Enlightenment got updated to 0.18 series. We have to rebuild all our extra packages still for this release. Another set of packages is expected due this.

We also recommend to read our [testing thread][3] about this update to avoid issues you might still have and we missed …
