This document contains the full changelog for every previous versions of MassOS, as well as the changes currently in development for the next upcoming version of MassOS (which may be subject to change before the version is finally released).
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Official development of MassOS was ceased at the end of 2022. Unless otherwise stated, any subsequent code commits beyond this date are done purely for experimental purposes; they are NOT indicative of any upcoming release, should NOT be considered stable/usable, and will NOT be given any support whatsoever. This also applies to all experimental builds published at https://dmassey.net/files/massos-experimental-builds/. Please also note that it is NOT POSSIBLE to perform an in-place upgrade from MassOS 2022.10 or older to any build based on these experimental changes; do NOT attempt it under any circumstance.
Changes:
- Experimental builds will now be versioned based on their build date, i.e.,
experimental-20241231. - Switched to osinstallgui in the live CD, a new (currently still in development) GUI installer program to replace the old TUI installer.
- Moved Live CD creation script to the main MassOS repo (with improvements) and dropped support for "nofirmware" ISOs.
- Rootfs tarballs will still not contain firmware (only ISOs will), however a new utility will eventually be developed to allow firmware installation to be managed by users at runtime.
- Added Memtest86+ and UEFI EDK2 Shell to the Live CD as additional tools.
- Migrated to merged bin-sbin filesystem structure, as required by future systemd versions (
sbindirectories are now symlinks to theirbincounterpart). - Migrated to systemd-sysusers for system user management where possible.
- Migrated Python modules away from Python EGGs, due to deprecation by pip (builds now use
buildandinstallerinstead ofsetup.py.). - Switched default tar back to GNU tar (bsdtar is still present), and removed
set-default-tarutility from the system. - Miscellaneous bug and security fixes/improvements.
- Dropped old Xorg input drivers which are replaced by libinput.
- Split Noto fonts package into normal fonts, CJK fonts and emoji fonts.
- Added zsh and fish, both of which can optionally be used for the shell instead of the default Bash.
- Added libaom and SVT-AV1 packages for improved AV1 video codec support.
- Added AMF and NVDEC/NVENC support to FFmpeg for improved hardware acceleration support.
- Added firewalld and enabled it by default, for enhanced firewall support.
- Reaplced full OpenLDAP package with only libldap.
- Replaced pkg-config with pkgconf.
- Replaced SDL with sdl12-compat.
- Added libc++ and libc++abi alongside the LLVM installation.
- Added HTTP/3 support in curl using libnghttp3.
- Added
verify-sources.shscript to the build system to allow verifying SHA256 checksums of downloaded sources before building MassOS. - Numerous build system and packaging improvements.
- Removed deprecated static documentation from the MassOS repo, in favour of the GitHub wiki.
- [Xfce] Upgraded to Xfce 4.20 with initial (experimental) Wayland support.
- [Xfce] Removed Weston and replaced it with LabWC, as required by the Xfce Wayland session.
- [Xfce] Added openbox compatibility to Arc theme, for LabWC theme support.
- [Xfce] Added elementary icon theme, for some missing icons not provided by Adwaita or Arc.

Changes:
- Btrfs is now is the default filesystem (recommended by the MassOS Installer). ext4 and the others will remain fully supported.
- Upgraded Linux Kernel to new major version 6.0.
- Added WebP support for GTK applications which use gdk-pixbuf.
- Added mesa-utils, to provide
eglinfo,glxgearsandglxinfoutilities. - Added UFW ("Uncomplicated Firewall"); user-friendly frontend to iptables.
- Moved Sysprof to GNOME as it now depends on GTK4/libadwaita, and only libsysprof-capture is needed outside of GNOME.
- [Xfce] Added Weston, to provide basic support for running Wayland apps, as Xfce does not yet support Wayland natively.

- Improved accessibility by providing an optional high contrast theme.
- Fixed broken video playback in Parole and other GStreamer-based applications.

Changes:
- Fixed very long startup times in Firefox and Evince (#29).
- Fixed an issue setting the default locale in the MassOS Installer (#35).
- Added zap, a lightweight package manager for AppImages.
- Added mouse/cursor support for non-graphical environments (e.g. tty terminals).
- Added Vulkan-Tools, small utilities for working with and testing GPU Vulkan support.
- Replaced dhclient with dhcpcd, as dhclient is now deprecated upstream.
- Reworked the shell startup files (profile, bashrc, etc.) to hopefully fix some environment-related issues.
- Replaced Thunderbird with a more lightweight alternative (saves about 230MB).
- If desired, Thunderbird can still be installed from the software centre / Flatpak, and this is the preferred way to get it since it allows it to be updated independently of MassOS.

Changes:
- Added TPM2 support. This allows programs like systemd to utilise TPM2 chips. It does not make TPM2 a system requirement.
- The default initramfs filename is now
initramfs-<kernelversion>.imginstead ofinitrd.img-<kernelversion>. This fixes thelsinitrdprogram. - Added libglvnd to provide additional graphics libraries which some packages depend on. It also provides some existing Mesa libs, however does not conflict with Mesa.
- Fixed issues with zlib and GTK3.
