Development Release: Linux Mint 7 RC1 |
| Clement Lefebvre has announced the availability of the first release candidate for Linux Mint 7, code name "Gloria": "The team is proud to announce the release of Linux Mint 7 RC1 'Gloria'. The 7th release of Linux Mint comes with numerous bug fixes and a lot of improvements. In particular, the menu system, the application manager and the upload manager now provide new features, such as 'Suggestions', 'Featured applications', 'SCP and SFTP support'. The underlying base of the operating system was also strengthened with a new adjustment mechanism which makes Linux Mint more robust and less vulnerable to Ubuntu package upgrades, and the introduction of virtual and meta packages which simplify upgrade paths and the installation of multiple desktop environments." Read the rest of the release announcement for information about system requirements and how to report bugs.
