Parrot 4.3 released!
Parrot 4.3 is now available for download. This release provides security and stability updates and is the starting point for our plan to develop an LTS edition of Parrot. They are working on a Parrot LTS branch, a long term support, release-based distribution to provide long term reliability to users for all architectures.
New Features
- Linux was updated to the
4.18.10
version, and Linux4.19
will be released soon. Firefox 63
provides noticeable security and privacy features, but it is no longer available to 32bit systems, so they switched tofirefox-esr
on all the unsupported architectures.- Bug in the parrot menu configuration, that prevented several menu categories to show up, is fixed.
- The Parrot
.bashrc
file was updated, now it provides better snap support, the ll alias now shows the size in a human readable format and it does no longer overwrite some global settings as it used to do before. OpenJDK 11
is now the default java provider.Anonsurf
received important stability upgrades and now it does not mess up thedns
configuration.- New Parrot icons. The Parrot edition of the MAIA icon theme was updated.
Parrot 4.3
