Spam has new way to evade security
E-mails via service providers clogging system
Yep, just what we need, more spam. Apparently they aren't as concerned with hiding from their isps as getting the mail out as they are now just sending it through their isps servers. Read the gory details here.

Dragora 3.0-beta1 released
I am pleased to announce the release of Dragora 3.0 Beta 1.
Dragora is a complete and reliable distribution of the GNU/Linux operating system that is entirely free software. Dragora is founded on the concepts of simplicity and elegance, it can be run for almost any purpose (desktop,
workstation, server, development, etc.). The intended audience is people
interested in learning more about the technical aspects of a friendly
GNU/Linux distribution. Also people looking to use the purest ethical
software for daily use.
The beginning of the development of the series 3.0 represents the
migration towards a new C library, Musl. The continuation of
supervision capabilities (introduced for the services in 2012).
The restructuring of the hierarchy of directories, the improvement of
the tools provided by the distribution, a new automatic method to build
the distribution, the prebuilt cross-compiler set, and much more!
The homepage is at www.dragora.org
Current development pages are located at
https://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/dragora.git/ and
https://notabug.org/dragora/
Changes in this version:
* A new installer for this series has been introduced, it can be
invoked from the command line as `dragora-installer'.
* A new tool (based on dialog(1)) has been introduced to
configure the keyboard mapping in the console, it is called
`dragora-keymap'.
* Our simple and friendly package manager has reached version 1.3,
which contains minor changes and fixes. It is worth mentioning
that Qi now uses `tarlz' to produce, list packages in parallel.
Tarlz uses a simplified and safer variant of the POSIX pax format
compressed with our favorite compressor "lzip".
* To complement the security in general, for binaries with PIE and
SSP (both are default features in Dragora), they are now complemented
with RELRO by default.
* The main toolchain has been upgraded. This -beta1 have Binutils
2.33.1, The GNU C Compiler 9, GNU Linux libre 4.19.78, and
Musl 1.1.24.
* LibreSSL has been upgraded to the version 3.0.1
* Ruby (programming language) version 2.6.5 has been introduced.
* Support for FUSE (in the kernel) and user space, is now available
in Dragora.
* Xfce 4.14 has been introduced in this version.
* dragora-ice, a customized version of IceWM has been added.
* All the official X.Org components has been updated (drivers, server,
applications, etc.). Included new drivers: xf86-input-elographics,
xf86-video-amdgpu, xf86-video-vboxvideo. The configuration for the
xf86-video-intel driver has been fixed this time.
* Work to complete DocBook support in Dragora is underway.
* Build recipes for new packages have been built:
Please, traverse the /usr/pkg hierarchy for a full view of
installed packages.
* Many general fixes, improvements, and clean ups have been performed.
The ISO images may be fetched at:

Dragora is available in "live" or hybrid ISO image form. You need the .iso
for the packages if you want to perform a hard disk installation.
Notes:
* The password for the root user in the Live CD is: dragora
This beta version can be considered as stable, it is catalogued just as
beta because it lacks many things that we will try to complement in future
versions.
We welcome feedback at our Freenode IRC channel, #dragora, and on our
mailing list. We are looking for help with documentation, testing,
bug reports, patches, etc.
Thank you to all of you who support this humble project made with great
sacrifice. And thank you especially for supporting the philosophy and
spirit of software freedom that Dragora aims to promote.
Best regards,
Matias Fonzo, Dragora author and maintainer.

| PCLinuxOS 2019.10 updated installation media release
The PCLinuxOS project has announced the release of updated installation media for PCLinuxOS. The new media carries the version number 2019.10 and contains a fully updated system as of October 15 2019. Please note it is not required to do a clean installation each month since PCLinuxOS is a rolling release. These ISOs are being provided so new users don’t have a large update to perform after installation from a dated ISO.
