Valuable News – 2026/07/27

Wait 5 sec.

The Valuable News weekly series is dedicated to provide summary about news, articles and other interesting stuff mostly but not always related to the UNIX/BSD/Linux systems. Whenever I stumble upon something worth mentioning on the Internet I just put it here.Today the amount information that we get using various information streams is at massive overload. Thus one needs to focus only on what is important without the need to grep(1) the Internet everyday. Hence the idea of providing such information ‘bulk’ as I already do that grep(1).The Usual Suspects section at the end is permanent and have links to other sites with interesting UNIX/BSD/Linux news.Past releases are available at the dedicated NEWS page.UNIXFreeBSD pkg(8) 2.8.0 Released.https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/releases/tag/2.8.0Google Summer of Code 2026 Reports: Compat Linux Syscall Testinghttps://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/gsoc2026_testing_compat_linuxBoxyBSD Returns to FreeBSD: Migrating from Proxmox VE to Sylve with Bhyve.https://gyptazy.com/blog/boxybsd-moving-from-proxmox-to-bhyve-with-sylve/Monitor Your Devices with LibreNMS on FreeBSD.https://it-notes.dragas.net/2026/05/07/monitor-your-services-with-librenms-on-freebsd/Install Latest Native Claude Code on FreeBSD.https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/install-latest-claude-code.103339/Understanding ZFS Vdev Types.https://klarasystems.com/articles/openzfs-understanding-zfs-vdev-types/Game of Trees 0.127 Released.https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20260721102106Stalwart Mail Server Now Officially Supports FreeBSD.https://reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1v1nj2k/stalwart_mail_server_now_officially_supports/My Home Assistant Setup: FreeBSD Bhyve/Jails nad Zigbee/Homematic/Matter.https://blog.hofstede.it/my-home-assistant-setup-bhyve-freebsd-jails-zigbee-homematic-and-matter-over-thread/FreeBSD Foundation Welcomes New Board Member: Dave Cottlehuber.https://freebsdfoundation.org/blog/freebsd-foundation-welcomes-new-board-member-dave-cottlehuber/If Scrubs Hurt Your ZFS Design is Broken.https://klarasystems.com/articles/if-scrubs-hurt-your-zfs-design-is-broken/Ports Repository Freeze.https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-announce/2026-July/000294.htmlWlasny Serwer FreeBSD – Czesc 7 – Serwer Poczty IMAP.
