Kabar baik bagi anda pengguna Mandriva Linux yang sudah kangen dengan rilis distribusi mandriva yang baru, salah satu turunan dari Mandriva Linux, ROSA Linux baru saja merilis versi Alpha dari ROSA Desktop 2012. ROSA Desktop 2012 ini adalah (biasanya) merupakan versi fork dari Mandriva terbaru (walau sayang, kejelasan Mandriva 2012 masih simpang siur).
Berikut adalah berita rilisnya dari ROSA Lab:
In this Alpha release the main emphasis was made on libraries and core system software.
We have successfully rebuilt packages from the Main repository with new libraries and adopted our package base to RPM 5.4.x requirements. Versions of system components included in the alpha release:
