Alpine Linux 3.21.0

Alpine Linux is a community developed operating system designed for routers, firewalls, VPNs, VoIP boxes, containers, and servers. The project's latest release is Alpine Linux 3.21.0. Along with several key package upgrades, the new version also introduces loongarch64 CPU support. "We are pleased to announce the release of Alpine Linux 3.21.0, the first in the v3.21 stable series. Highlights: Linux kernel 6.12, GCC 14, LLVM 19, Node.js (LTS) 22.11, Rust 1.83, Crystal 1.14, GNOME 47, Go 1.23, KDE Plasma 6.2, LXQt 2.1, PHP 8.4, Qt 6.8, Sway 1.10, .NET 9.0. Significant changes: initial support for loongarch64 was added. As always, make sure to use 'apk upgrade --available' when switching between major versions. OpenSSH service will automatically restart when upgrading to be able to accept new connections. The linux-firmware is now compressed with zstd. Users running custom-built kernels need to ensure that CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS_ZSTD=y is present in the kernel configuration. Users with / and /usr on separate filesystems (which is unsupported) need to take special care."
