Mandrake Linux

MandrakeSoft has announced a major evolution in the way that future Mandrake Linux distributions will be engineered and released. "The spirit of the new development road map is to keep providing a release similar to what was released in the past, which will now be called "Mandrake Linux Community." This is the regular Mandrake Linux distribution, based on Cooker, which goes through the traditional QA process. But from now on, a second 'rock-solid' version titled "Mandrake Linux Official" will be released two or three months after Mandrake Linux Community. This new version will include all Erratas applied to the initial release, and as a result will be particularly solid and problem-free. The Community release will be ideal for those who want the 'latest and greatest' features as soon as available, while the second release will be perfect for those who prefer to wait and avoid any potential glitches."

The php-ini package previously had modules located in /usr/lib/php for AMD64 when the actual modules were being installed in /usr/lib64/php. The updated packages provide a fixed php.ini file for Mandrake Linux 9.2.

Also Beta 2 of Mandrake 10 appeared, with 2.6.2-rc3 (the day before 2.6.2 came out, IIRC), the previous beta had 2.6.1.

More information is available in this article on the MandrakeClub website.
