The Xubuntu team is happy to announce the immediate release of Xubuntu 25.10. Xubuntu 25.10, code-named 'Questing Quokka', is a regular release and will be supported for 9 months, until July 2026. Xubuntu 25.10 features the latest Xfce 4.20 and GNOME 49 updates. Xfce 4.20 updates feature stability improvements and enhanced Wayland support, for those adventurous enough to use it. GNOME 49 apps have received further polish and are well-suited for Xubuntu. MATE 1.26 apps are still included to round out Xubuntu's office suite. Known issues: some missing icons mean that libadwaita apps (modern GNOME style) have graphical glitches, notably the window close icons are blank and Document Scanner is missing an icon for the scanner options; the graphical SSH agent is unavailable due to a change in the GNOME Keyring Daemon; Flatpak packages will refuse to install due to a conflict between AppArmor and libfuse, a fix is in progress.
