apkg — new pipeline tooling for Obarun packages

Dear Obarun Community,

The build and deployment pipeline behind every Obarun package — [obcore], [obextra], [observice] and [obcommunity] — has been rebuilt from the ground up. The new tool is called apkg. It replaces the legacy apkg-*.sh bash scripts that have been quietly orchestrating Obarun package releases for more than 3 years. This post explains what changed, what it means for maintainers, and — most importantly — why contributing a package to [obcommunity] is now drastically easier than it used to be.

66 reach the obcore repository

Dear Obarun users,

I'm pleased to announce that the 66 and skalibs packages have been moved from the [obcore-testing] repository to [obcore]. After three years of development, i'm happy to share the results of this work with you.

66 Migration Instructions

Dear Obarun users, the Obarun testing repositories are ready to be used to migrate your 66 program to the new release.

This documentation serves as a general guide and may not cover all possible scenarios. It is based on a system freshly installed from the latest ISO, so you may need to adapt these instructions to your specific setup.

Testing Repositories update

We are currently in the process of updating packages in the [obcore-testing], [obextra-testing] and [observice-testing] repositories to provide the necessaries for the migration to the new release of 66.
