Valve's Steam Deck updates to Plasma 6.2.5!

The games console has a slow update cycle to guarantee stability for users, but #Valve announced yesterday that both the #Arch base system and the #Plasma desktop environment are being updated to new preview releases.

They take a specific version of arch, then add packages/changes selectively.

A little bird told me it's quite a pain that arch updates so fast, because if they want to update package A they need to deal with a dependency hell due to everything having update on the meantime, and switching to Debian was even discussed still around the time OLED was released.

They take a specific version of arch, (..)

Which? Which one?!!

I believe they might take version numbers (for packages) from Fedora or somewhere else.

One "day". Doesn't need to be a numbered version. It's there same as any other non immutable release in a way. Ubuntu 24.10 is different from one day to another, even with the same version number.
