The 182nd installment of the 9to5Linux Weekly Roundup is here for the week ending on April 7th, 2024, keeping you updated with the most important things happening in the Linux world.

This week we got some very interesting news, starting with Linux Mint devs’ plans to build their own Thunderbird DEB package for the Linux Mint 22 release as the upstream Ubuntu 24.04 LTS will move to the Thunderbird Snap, as well as to finally adopt PipeWire as the default sound server.

This week we also got some major software releases, namely the FFmpeg 7.0 multimedia framework, Qt Creator 13 IDE, Kodi 21.0 media center, and fwupd 1.9.16 firmware update utility, which is the first release to adopt zstd compression for its metadata instead of XZ Utils.
