Rhino Linux 2025.3

Rhino Linux is an Ubuntu-based distribution which offers a rolling-release upgrade approach. The project's latest snapshot introduces a rewritten package manager (RPK2) and a new KDE-based desktop environment which uses Plasma 6 packages. "2025.3 images ship with RPK2, our rewrite of Rhino PKG in Nushell, by default. We have already written a blog post detailing the changes that came in RPK2, which we recommend checking out if you haven't already. We also recommend all users review the updated Rhino PKG Wiki or rpk help message to learn about the new commands and shorthands. We have also announced the release of our UBXI KDE Desktop package this release cycle, based on Plasma 6. You can read the full announcement here. Additionally, we want to reiterate that we plan to release official UBXI KDE disk image spins by the end of the year, shipping alongside the standard Unicorn Desktop images, to allow for more desktop options out-of-the-box. Pacstall has had a few major bumps in between Rhino Linux 2025.2 and 2025.3. As we have mentioned before, with Pacstall being integral to Rhino Linux, as well as sharing developers between the projects, we feel it's important to share information about these releases as well."

elementary OS 8.0

The elementary OS project has announced the release of version 8.0 of the project's Ubuntu-based distribution. The new release focuses on adjusting application permissions and expanding the default Flatpak repositories: "Application settings has an all-new design that expands your control over permissions. We now support adjusting the run-time permissions in Flatpak's Permissions Store - these are set when an app explicitly asks for your permission to access a feature while it's running. So if you've previously denied an app access to run in the background or granted an app permission to set the wallpaper, you can change your mind at any time and adjust permissions here. We've also adjusted the language of install-time permissions - aka sandbox holes - to be more clear that these represent advanced system access and the implications of adjusting them. Plus the descriptions of several individual items were changed based on your feedback to use less technical language. And app permission pages now show the app's icon and description."

Rhino Linux 2024.2

Rhino Linux is an Ubuntu-based distribution which offers a rolling-release upgrade approach. Rhino features a custom meta package manager which unifies Deb, Pacstall and Flatpak software management. The project's latest release, Rhino Linux 2024.2, includes a new theme and an overhauled configuration wizard. "Our Setup Wizard has just gotten a whole lot better, and we offer something for both regular and power users. We have added a signifcant number of containerization options, a new package manager, and even the option to add night shift. You can now select these additional options in the rhino-setup wizard: Nix, the package manager (note: rhino-pkg/rpk does not currently support Nix). Docker, for rapid containerization and development. Podman, a daemon-less, drop-in replacement for Docker. Flatseal, a GUI application for managing permissions on installed Flatpaks. Distrobox, a program that uses Docker or Podman to deploy containers for other distributions on top of Rhino. Apptainer, for developing smaller application containers. VirtualBox, a GUI virtual machine application. QEMU, a free and open source emulation backbone. Redshift, adjust the color temperature of your screen according to your surroundings."
