Actualización del Desarrollo de Mageia 10: Planeación y Principales Novedades
El primero de Diciembre, el equipo de desarrolladores de Mageia se reunió para debatir el progreso de Mageia 10, estableciendo la ruta inicial e informándose sobre el estado de los principales componentes de software.
Se acordó un calendario tentativo, destinado a iniciar el ciclo de lanzamiento tan pronto como sea posible con la primera versión alpha saliendo para “ayer” (aquí estoy bromeando un poco), la primera beta en la primera mitad de Enero de 2026, continuando con la segunda beta un mes después. Se ha programado la primera RC (candidato a versión final) dos semanas después de la segunda beta, mientras que la versión final se espera para Abril de 2026.
Esta planeación pretende evitar que los componentes principales en Mageia 10 estén obsoletos antes del lanzamiento de la versión estable y al mismo tiempo asegúrale a los usuarios que todo esta trabajando perfectamente según nuestros estándares
Los componentes a incluir en la próxima versión serian:
- PHP: versiones 8.5 (en Cauldron) y 8.4 (probablemente en paralelo) se incluirán para soportar una amplia variedad de sitios.
- Python: no se ha planeado migrar a Python 3.14.
- Ruby: no se ha planeado actualizar a Ruby 4.0.0, ya que no contiene grandes cambios.
- Java: Java 21 se mantendrá como versión LTS (Long-Term Support) para asegurar el soporte 32-bit, but Java 25 (la versión más reciente) estará disponible como java-latest para las arquitecturas de 64-bits.
- GCC y LLVM: GCC actualmente está en 15.2.0, y LLVM en 20.1.8; se decidio mantnerlas par el lanzamiento.
- Go/Golang: Se acordó usar la versión 1.25.x, enfocándonos en corregir los paquetes que lo utilizan y necesitan ser actualizados (cerca de 820 paquetes).
- Kernel: La versión actual es 6.12.XX (LTS). Hay un debate actualmente sobre utilizar la versión 6.18.XX (próxima versión LTS) para mayor soporte del hardware más reciente, en especial para los juegos.
En cuanto a los entornos de escritorio, LXDE y LXQt están actualmente actualizados, pero se esta debatiendo sobre KDE y GNOME. LibreOffice está en la versión 25.8.3, con la versión 26.2 planeada para finales de Enero de 2026.
Puede encontrar una lista mas detallada de las versiones de componentes, aplicaciones aqui.
Ahora los puntos críticos.
Al momento de la reunión, la creación de las ISO de 32-bit ISOs estaba bloqueda por un fallo en perl-URPM, que ha sido corregido.
Se descubrió la necesidad de actualizar manualmente las claves GPG y el paquete crypto-policies para la migración de Mageia 9 a Mageia 10. El equipo esta buscando una solución a implementarse en Mageia 9 antes del lanzamiento de Mageia 10.
Mozilla y otros están abandonando la arquitectura de 32-bit, incrementando la dificultad de mantener un soporte total.
Hay incertidumbre sobre el estado de Chromium que actualmente no esta mantenido.
El trabajo de integrar dos nuevos nodos ARM rentados para la construcción de paquetes va por buen camino, con progreso en el uso de contenedores Docker para la tarea, a pesar de las pequeñas modificaciones requeridas en las herramientas ulri e iurt para ello.
La reunión se destacó por clima constructivo y orientado al progreso. Mageia 10 parece estar lista para entrar en la fase Alfa, siendo conscientes de los problemas que aún quedan por resolver, especialmente en lo que respecta a i686, el kernel y el ajuste de los distintos componentes de software.
La comunidad está activa y colaborando, y el trabajo de consolidación realizado hasta ahora sienta una sólida base para un lanzamiento estable en los próximos meses.
Más actualizaciones sobre esto vendrán en el futuro, pero recomendamos mantener vigiladas las páginas Release Notes y Erratas.
¡Aún recibimos gratamente a quienes quieran probar nuestra distribución (o hacer cualquier tipo de contribución)!
NDT: Por error se había puesto 5.12 como versión del kernel, lo correcto es 6.12
