SYS v. 0.23
Version 0.23 of Linux SYS was released on 24/8/2008.
The installation DVD of SYS brings about 5000 or 18 GB applications, more can be downloaded from the repository.
The installation is full-automatical, and needs 15 min. on a modern computer. However, it's convenient to make sufficiently empty space before, because resizing half-full partitions during the installation takes time.
Many programs were substituted by better ones, all were updated: linux 2.6.26.2 and glibc 2.7 compiled with its headers, glib 2.17.7, gcc 4.2.4, gtk+ 2.13.7, pango 1.21.4, cairo 1.7.4, mesa 7.0.3, X 1.4.2, compiz-fusion 0.77, perl 5.8.8, OpenOffice 3.0.0.9339, gimp 2.5.2, alsa 1.0.17, pulseaudio 0.9.10, songbird 0.8rc , banshee 1.2, flashplayer 10rc etc.
Beside of this, SYS will start to provide an always-actualized install DVD called SYS-current. It will make available immediately and in the most uncomplicated manner actual updates and corrections, and normally should be prefered for new installations.
