Digital art wallpapers for openSUSE Leap and Tumbleweed by lkocman

Description

We've enrolled set of new wallpapers to both Leap 16 and Tumbleweed as part of https://news.opensuse.org/2024/10/26/leap-tw-get-makeovers/

We've previewed digital art wallpapers which were not part of the initial drop. I'd like to spend time on hackweek to finialize my current Taipei (mountains) and Mauritius digital art wallpapers.

Goals

Finalize existing two digital art wallpapers for Leap and Tumbleweed https://github.com/openSUSE/branding/issues/155 Make them available as part of leap16 dir in https://github.com/openSUSE/wallpapers and update (This makes is available to Tumbleweed users as well). Update https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:common:Factory/wallpapers-openSUSE-extra && Leap:16.0 && Factory.

Update Haskell ecosystem in Tumbleweed to GHC-9.10.x by psimons

Description

We are currently at GHC-9.8.x, which a bit old. So I'd like to take a shot at the latest version of the compiler, GHC-9.10.x. This is gonna be interesting because the new version requires major updates to all kinds of libraries and base packages, which typically means patching lots of packages to make them build again.

Goals

Have working builds of GHC-9.10.x and the required Haskell packages in 'devel:languages:haskell` so that we can compile:

• git-annex
• pandoc
• xmonad
• cabal-install

New openSUSE-welcome by lkocman

Project Description

Let's revisit our existing openSUSE welcome app.

My goal was to show Leap 16 in a new coat. Welcome app adds to the first time use experience. We've recently added donation button to our existing welcome.

Some things that I recently wanted to address were EOL and possibly upgrade notification.

I've already done some experiments with mint welcome app, but not sure if it's better than the existing one.

There is also a PR to rework existing app https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-welcome/pull/36 (this should be considered as an option too)

Goal for this Hackweek

New welcome app, possibly with EOL notification for Leap.

1) Welcome application(s) with (rebrand changes) maintained under github.com/openSUSE

2) Application is submitted to openSUSE:Factory && openSUSE:Leap:16.0

3) Updated needles in openQA (probably post hackweek)

Create openSUSE images for Arm/RISC-V boards by avicenzi

Project Description

Create openSUSE images (or test generic EFI images) for Arm and/or RISC-V boards that are not yet supported.

Goal for this Hackweek

Create bootable images of Tumbleweed for SBCs that currently have no images available or are untested.

Consider generic EFI images where possible, as some boards can hold a bootloader.

Document in the openSUSE Wiki how to flash and use the image for a given board.

Boards that I have around and there are no images:

• Rock 3B
• Nano PC T3 Plus
• Lichee RV D1
• StartFive VisionFive (has some image needs testing)

Hack Week 22

• NanoPC T4

Hack Week 21

• NanoPi M4B
• Radxa Zero

New migration tool for Leap by lkocman

Update

I will call a meeting with other interested people at 11:00 CET https://meet.opensuse.org/migrationtool

Description

SLES 16 plans to have no yast tool in it. Leap 16 might keep some bits, however, we need a new tool for Leap to SLES migration, as this was previously handled by a yast2-migration-sle

Goals

A tool able to migrate Leap 16 to SLES 16, I would like to cover also other scenarios within openSUSE, as in many cases users would have to edit repository files manually.

• Leap -> SLES docs
• Leap 15 -> Leap 16 (or generally within Leap releases)
• Leap -> Tumbleweed
• Leap -> Slowroll

Out of scope is any migration to an immutable system. I know Richard already has some tool for that.
