AV Linux 23.1 'Enlightened' Released!

AV Linux

After many months of behind the scenes development and a series of new features and changes AV Linux MX Edition (aka AVL-MXe) 23.1 “Enlightened” has been released! This release moves platforms from MX-21/Debian 11 “Bullseye” to MX-23/Debian 12 “Bookworm”. With the new platform comes a major move to the Enlightenment Desktop Environment (0.25.4) and a completely new Audio system (PipeWire 1.0.0) because of the sheer amount and depth of the changes there is no repository upgrade path from AV Linux 21.3 and this new version will require a fresh install. As with prior releases the MX Linux development team, specifically dolphin_oracle, Melber, Stevo and timkb4cq have been extremely helpful with build system support, a PipeWire metadata UI and extra multimedia packaging and that has been very much appreciated! The ISO has grown to 5.2Gb since the last release, Kernels are bigger than ever, additional bundled applications and more Plugin binaries all compete for ISO real estate. AVL-MXe 23.1 has an embarrassment of content riches (look around and compare) but it is in no way ‘bloated”.
