Highlights in Fedora 26
Highlights in Fedora 26
The much anticipated release of Fedora 26 was made on July 11. As usual, it came with a wide array of updated packages, everything from the kernel through programming languages to desktops, but there are also internal tools and installation mechanisms that have changed as well. Beyond that, the new Python Classroom Lab is aimed at teachers and instructors to make it easier to get a full-featured Python (of various flavors and with lots of extras) in several different easily installable forms. Though it was delayed by more than a month from its original planned release date—something the project embraces at some level—Fedora 26 looks like it was worth waiting for.
