Ngokwalokho esikubonile ezinsukwini eziyisikhombisa ezedlule futhi emasontweni edlule, akekho obelindele ukuthi inguqulo entsha ezinzile ye-Linux kernel ikhishwe izolo. Sezidlulile izinsuku zikaKhisimusi kanye noNcibijane, futhi bobabili abathuthukisi nabahloli banyathele amabhuleki kancane. Lokho kubangele ukwehla okwenze ukuthi Abazokhululwa bakamuva bafike ngemva kwamasonto apholile futhi nosayizi wabo mncane ngempela. Emahoreni ambalwa edlule, uLinus Torvalds Usungule I-Linux 5.16-rc8, futhi usephinde wasebenzisa isiphawulo esithi "mncane" ukuze alichaze.
Ezidlule kulezi zinsuku, konke kulindeleke ukuthi kubuyele kwesijwayelekile kuleli sontoNakuba uTorvalds ethi abakabuyeli bonke emisebenzini yabo futhi balindele izinsuku eziyisikhombisa ezizolile. Uma kungenzeki lutho, futhi nakuba kungashongo kanjalo ngokuqondile, inguqulo ezinzile ye-Linux 5.16 kufanele ifike kuleli Sonto, Januwari 9, kodwa isengabambezeleka uma behlangabezana nenkinga evamile ebangela ukukhishwa ukubambezeleka elinye isonto .
I-Linux 5.16 kufanele ifike ngoJanuwari 9
Ngokumangazayo, lena i-rc encane - akukho okuningi okufanele kwenziwe ngenkathi useholidini. Ngisho namanje, akubona bonke abantu ababuyile, futhi cishe sizoba nelinye isonto elithule kakhulu bese ngizokwenza inguqulo yangempela ye-5.16 futhi ngethemba ukuthi sizobuyela kwesijwayelekile noma ngaphansi (futhi sibonga abantu vele uyangazi). Bahambise izicelo zokudonsa ezisalindile ze-5.17 - kuyangisiza ukuthi ngizithole ngokushesha njengoba ngeshwa ngizoba nohambo phakathi kwewindi lokuhlanganisa elilandelayo).
Nakuba konke kubonisa ukuthi yebo, uma lokhu akuzange kufike NgeSonto 9 Bengizowenza kolandelayo mhla zili-17 kodwa akulindelekile ngenxa yokuzola abake bakuthola ngesikhathi besathuthuka. Uma isikhathi sifika, abasebenzisi be-Ubuntu abafuna ukuyifaka kuzofanele bazenzele bodwa, njengoba iCanonical ihlanganisa i-kernel kukho konke ukukhishwa futhi iyibuyekeza kuphela ukuze kulungiswe iziphazamisi.
