CRUX 3.8 comes with a multilib toolchain which includes glibc 2.40, GCC 14.2.0 and Binutils 2.43.1. Kernel: Linux 6.12.23 (LTS). CRUX 3.8 ships with X.Org 7.7 and X.Org Server 21.1.16. CRUX 3.8 includes Wayland 1.23.1. Ports continue to default to X.Org, but Wayland can easily be installed along and run in either pure Wayland or Xwayland mode. If you decide to run a Wayland session, you will need to enable the 'contrib' collection and rebuild a few ports (for example xorg/mesa) to make it fully available. The ISO image is processed with isohybrid and is suitable for burning on a DVD or putting on a USB drive. UEFI support is available during installation with dosfstools, efibootmgr and grub2-efi/syslinux available during installation. Because all bootloaders are in our opt collection now, no bootloader is installed as a core port by default. To give the possibility to select a bootloader, we have added a new menu to setup. Important notes: glibc depends on libxcrypt now, we have added libxcrypt to our core repository; latest shadow depends on libbsd or libmd, we have added both to core....
