From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
Rules
- Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.

I rely on Lemmy and in
pacman -Syyueveryday~~Then, what does a package maintainer rely on?~~
Edit: I'm so dumb. It's obvious they'd check original developer's repo or issue tracker. I'm sorry
I don't know... I guess in mailing lists and pages like RSS feed from main enterprises like SuSE, Red Hat and Canonical
You can track this kind of stuff on Mastodon also, join into a security instance (like https://infosec.exchange/explore) or start following them from another instance.
