[manjaro-general] [Stable Update] 2018-01-19 – Kernels, KDE Apps & Framework, Browsers, Virtualbox, Systemd, Mesa

[Manjaro Linux: Philip Müller]

[![system_software_update][1]][1]Hi community,

Upstream worked again on the **Spectre** and **Meltdown** matter and added **Retpoline** patches (v4.4, v4.9, v4.14, v4.15). Our **GCC** compiler is still in need for those patches aswell. We also updated **Systemd** to the lastest available version, added some needed fixes to **Pamac**, added **[KDE Framework v5.42][2]**, plus the usual **Haskell** and **Python** upgrades.

Matti worked to improve **Manjaro-Architect** installer, I updated **Snap**, we added [KDE Apps v17.12.1][3], renewed **Mesa** and released **Wine v3.0-rc6**. As usual we have the regular upstream updates.

Stefano worked again on our **Adapta Theme** and the **Grub-Live-Theme**. We had the [libcdio v2.0 rebuild][4] and added some more **WebDAD** packages.

Codruț worked on the **vertex-maia-icons**, we had another **systemd** update plus the usual **haskell** and **python** rebuilds.

Our effort and all the needed information about the new security risk can be found [here][5].

Remember,** we only continue with our 64bit architecture from now on**. Please adopt to [another distribution][6], if needed on 32bit supported systems, as you may not get any updates on that architecture from us.

Please report back and give us feedback for given changes made to our repositories.

kind regards
