mount recognizes NVMe and MMC as SSDs now (thanks 8Vinso8)

Calamares 3.4.0 released

A test release of Calamares, built from the Codeberg repository, was released today. It marks the beginning of the 3.4 series, which does not have a real “minor-worthy” change. Much like the start of the 3.3 series, it will take a while for any API changes to arrive and then settle down.

However, this release does mark the full change-over of releases from GitHub to Codeberg. There are no special release notes for 3.4.0, as a 3.4.1 will follow shortly with fixes for the release-process.

Calamares 3.3.14 released

First of 2025, with a bunch of internal improvements in the Python bindings, an undo-hook for pages (which rolls back changes that the keyboard and timezone pages may have made to the system) and improvements to the partition module.
