AGREED: Retire all packages maintained by the deepinde-sig group The decision comes one year after the project called for a security review of the Deepin Desktop Environment, after openSUSE dropped the desktop following a negative security assessment.

It has become the majority operating system running on the Azure cloud in the past 10 years.

The ad and cloud tech giant says it has been a year since it filed a formal complaint with the European Commission about Microsoft, and seems frustrated with the progress - or lack of it.
