![]() This release brings several changes, new features and deprecations/removals. A new OpenLDAP release, version 2.5.6, is available for Ubuntu Impish users.Here is the official Ubuntu 21.10 Changelog: OpenLDAP has been updated to 2.5.6 Since we know many just want to see the server changes, given this is STH, we have the changelog below for Ubuntu 21.10. Still, it is great to see Ubuntu and its massive community get an upgrade. For STH readers, we just want to quickly note that the next release, the Ubuntu 22.04 will be a LTS release given a two-year cadence (Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, 20.04 and so forth.) That means Ubuntu 21.10 release will be relatively short-lived in terms of support. That is OK, this is also a minor release. This is not going to be the most groundbreaking set of changes ever. Still, kudos to them for extending an olive branch to those hit by the CentOS retirement. Large segments of CentOS users will need to re-platform, although most likely to a LTS release. One other fun note here is that Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, is actively courting CentOS users on the Ubuntu front page after Red Hat went full IBM and said farewell to CentOS. ![]() For the Raspberry Pi, cloud-init now works more reliably over wired Ethernet and WiFi and there is support for the Sense HAT. We just covered the OpenStack Xena release where the user survey saw a >60% increase year/ year in deployed cores. A great example is the OpenStack Xena integration. There are also some big platform-level updates. This release brings the new Linux 5.13 kernel and support for new hardware like the Intel Alder Lake as well as the AMD MI200 GPU (Aldebaran.) There are also some cool features such as the ability to support Apple M1 devices, so if you have an Apple Mac Mini M1, get ready. Today, we have Ubuntu 21.10 (21 is for 2021, and 10 is for October.) This is not a LTS or long-term support release, but it does bring a number of new changes. Ubuntu is a very popular Linux distribution, so whenever we get an updated distribution, it is a big deal in the industry.
