LXQt 2.2 is now shipped by default. More information on its release can be found here. Starting in Ubuntu 25.10, Ubuntu now uses the uutils Rust implementation of Coreutils in place of the standard GNU Coreutils. uutils is intended to be fully GNU-compatible, but reimplements the entire suite of OS components in Rust, providing better memory safety and (hopefully) more robust code where the OS needs it most. As with any major change, this is not entirely without risk, and it is possible that users could see core system tools behave differently than they used to. If you notice a core system utility break or behave differently than expected, please file a bug report against rust-coreutils. Note that findutils and diffutils have not been replaced with their Rust equivalents from uutils yet. The find, xargs and diff commands are still the original GNU variants, written in C.
