Red Hat death note for KDE
Re: Red Hat death note for KDE
Let's take care to avoid being baited by theregister.co.uk sensationalized "news"
Release Notes for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6 section: Deprecated Functionality
'Deprecated' as used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux is simply a warning that certain functionality may be removed or replaced in the future with functionality similar, identical or more advanced to the one deprecated. KDE, as well as anything listed in Chapter 51 of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6 release notes will continue to be supported for the life of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, currently planned through 2024.
Re: Red Hat death note for KDE
It may be a bit sensational headline-wise, but it is interesting news that right after being bought by IBM they are limiting support to Gnome. It probably won't affect Fedora's community KDE spin, but I'll be interested in what happens with CentOS. The big CentOS ISO comes with both KDE and Gnome installed by default. Since Redhat bought CentOS with the idea of paid support for CentOS down the road it will be interesting to see if CentOS also drops KDE. And if you run servers and want Redhat on your desktop for consistency and like KDE you are out of luck.skidoo wrote: ↑Sat Nov 03, 2018 11:00 pm Let's take care to avoid being baited by theregister.co.uk sensationalized "news"
