I recently read about that there is work happening to make gnome os as daily driver.

Gnome os is uses freedesktop sdk as base and build whole image from upstream code using buildstream.

Because this os image dont have any individual binary package concept like fedora silverblue, here are some of my questions:

1. How updates are handled for small security fixes?

For example if we need to fix a critical security issue in linux kernel, because their is no individual linux kernel rpm in gnome os, does it have to build whole os image for this security issue, does users need to download whole image just this security update?

2. How different software update handled?

linux kernel, mesa and other packages have different release time, does gnomes release everytime a new package get update or it handled monthly or 6 month cycle release with major gnome version.

in simple terms does updates are rolling release or freezed like steam os and released in fixed time intervals?

3. Does it have app armor or selinux enabled?

4. does in this build method we dont have any dependency hell issue?

###What is Fedora And Fedora Workstation###

Fedora is collaborative project by redhat and independent community of volunteers.

Official statement from docs:

"The Fedora Project is a community of people working together to build a free and open source operating system. We value Freedom, Friends, Features and First."

It track upstream development of different softwares, linux kernel, GNU tools, gnome, kde etc and distribute them as an polished OS.

It is a semi rolling release distro, with release cycle of 6 months.

One major version supported for 13 months.

Fedora project produce many products; Fedora Workstation (their flagship desktop experience), kde plasma desktop, server, iot editions, different spin for other desktops, eg. cinnamon, cosmic, niri etc which are managed by their respective sig(special interest group).

Fedora also have atomic immutable versions, silverblue etc that provide read only root filesystem, and image based os model, which considered more robust and will become default Fedora experience in future.

FEDORA WORKSTATION, is their flagship desktop experience and uses vanilla gnome dekstop. It provide a very polished and beautiful dekstop experience. 👍👍

Hey, This is community of Fedora workstation users who believe that fedora's main sub community mostly captured by kde plasma users.

here we can independently discuss about fedora workstation, gnome, gtk, libadwaita and its design, so these posts are not get buried by kde plasma's issues.

Before posting anything, read the rules, you only get one warning for violating rules, second time direct ban from community.

isn't it some irony that we start learning fundamental mathematics in higher mathematics.

we learn numbers, addition in elementary school, calculus in high school and then learn their foundations, number theory, real analysis in college.

we learn fundamentals in higher mathematics.

numbers, addition, these are not defined in elementary mathematics, we learn about them in higher mathematics through axioms.
