On #ArchLinux, you can now get both the “oldstable” #XLibre 25.0.x and the latest “beta” 25.2.x packages from our XLibre third-party repo.
Please see xlibre-arch.github.io for setup instructions. The old x11libre.net/repo/arch_based… repo has been removed in favor of the new repos.
Fast, resilient, and at home in stormy waters. The life of a #Gentoo.

Thank you very much, Darren, Natalie, and the whole @acreetionos team! It is an honor for us, and we greatly appreciate your decision to choose us and stay on #X11 in general.
We released the #XLibre Xserver 25.0.0.25, 25.1.9, and beta 25.2.2 during the last 4 days containing #security fixes for #CVE-2026-55999 and CVE-2026-56000. We recommend everyone update ASAP.

The deleted post of an #XLibre maintainer has been restored on the #ArtixLinux forum. Additionally, they packaged the Xserver 25.0.0.24 containing 8 CVE fixes that we released on June 6, 2026. For now we have github.com/xlibre-artix and will look into solutions for the future.
We have an indication that the availability of version 25.0.0.24 also fixes an issue with Intel graphics cards on Artix as reported at github.com/xlibre-artix/xlib….

Our response to allegations on the #ArtixLinux forum was deleted today, a few hours after posting it. It dealt with claims made by a former #XLibre team member, who calls himself "artist." You can find the deleted post in our X article xitter.cf/XLibreDev/status/20806….

We regret that we had to part ways with one of our team members. Given his recent behavior, he may try to remove #XLibre from #ArtixLinux for "technical“ reasons. In any case, we have packages, a forum, and a bug tracker for you at xlibre-artix.github.io.

On Jul 5, a #GarudaLinux user was seeking help related to #XLibre and Garuda packages on the Garuda forum. He's been told to remove XLibre, and the thread has been locked.
We fixed the underlying dependency issue and assure you that you're welcome at github.com/xlibre-arch.

1. New pipeline. Faster updates.

Josh Ellithorpe, alias @zquestz, released Plank Reloaded 0.11.169 a few days ago. The fork of the original Plank project provides a simple dock for #X11 desktop environments like Cinnamon, MATE, Xfce, and KDE with several improvements. #XLibre #Xingsday github.com/zquestz/plank-rel…
The GitHub user bry4n12255 is working on #AnbryInput, a small experimental Xorg/#XLibre input driver focused on low-latency mouse and keyboard input. In his measurements, it performed roughly 20-35% better than #libinput. #Xingsday github.com/bry4n12255/anbryi…
