Used to have this, now I just
sudo dnf updatemy life is more relaxed.I don’t understand why Syncthing is still not version 2 on Fedora. Did I do something wrong? Did the repo changed? Apart from that, I agree, I really like Fedora on systems where I don’t want to mess with the system. But I do want to mess with my systems, that’s the point of Linux for me now :)
I didn't even know syncthing 2 was released. As a service type of software I don't really care too much for new features, I want it to be stable. Judging from this thread it wasn't really stable until a couple months ago: https://forum.syncthing.net/t/syncthing-2-0-august-2025/24758/30
I guess I'm fine with that. Software for which I need the latest release I wouldn't install from package manager anyway.
I used to mess a lot on my Linux system, now I just want it to work and not have to change anything. Still on default plasma config after years, I guess I just mess with my vim config and little else.
I can say about the stability, as I use Syncthing extensively and the version 2 since day one. It had the database issue, perhaps upon migration, which lead the program to crash on my Raspberry Pi 2B with 1 GB RAM. At some point I noticed the issue, removed the database and let it rebuilt it cleanly, which did the job and fixed the issue. Plus, I made a swap partition just in case. Haven’t seen any other issues after that. That was DietPi distro, based on Debian.
I had no issues like that on Arch, but my Arch desktops, laptops, and servers are more powerful, perhaps they handled the migration better. I expect that this was some bug that was fixed later. Fedora still syncs, but I wonder when would they update the repo, or if that’s me that wasn’t attentive somewhere and I need to change the repo. Maybe they follow the topic closer.
As far as I can see it has not been updated and someone is working on it. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2355938 Why does it matter for you to have version 2.0 anyway? As far as I understand it is interoperable with previous versions. At least, I didn't have any problems until now.
